The Workers’ Museum is open every day during the winter holidays – weeks 7 and 8. You can join in the activities throughout the day, go play in the Children’s Workers’ Museum and just have a nice day together while it’s cold outside. See everything that’s happening further down.
What is freedom? We’re going to find out during the winter holidays, when the whole family is invited to join us in search of friendships, birds and everyday heroes. See what’s happening here:

🐦 Discovery Hunt: Flying free – can you catch it?
📍Everyday, 10:00-17:00
Recommended age: 6+
How are freedom and dreams connected? And who is really indispensable for you to experience freedom? With our new discovery and activity booklet in your hands, you and your grown-ups can try to capture freedom in the exhibition Leif Sylvester – Freedom Flies. Here you can explore Leif Sylvester’s art and life – and explore what freedom means to you.
🎎 Make an everyday hero into a rag doll
📍Everyday, 10:00-16:30
Recommended age: 5+
In the rag doll workshop, we celebrate those who are important to others! Here you can turn your everyday heroes into rag dolls made from scraps of fabric, just like the working children did when they couldn’t afford new toys. Maybe you want to give your rag dolls as gifts to your heroes? Or maybe you want to take them home to remember your own heroes?
It takes place: In the ballroom
🚩 Explore the Children’s Workers Museum
📍Everyday, 10:00-16:45
Recommended age: 4+
Explore the Children’s Working Museum where you can play with everything. You can get dressed up as a working-class child and help out at the grocery store, cycle out with goods or sort bottles. When you’re off work, you can stop by the dance school and then finish up at home in the small backyard apartment. Maybe you can find the chamber pot?
☺️ Sandwiches and biscuits
Are you hungry? Visit our cozy coffee shop for biscuit cake and Rich’s, or our restaurant Café & Beer Hall, where every paying adult can bring a child under the age of 12 to the big sandwich table for free (offer valid Monday to Friday between 11:00 and 13:30). No one leaves hungry! For the Little Culture Night , we follow in the footsteps of the working children to strengthen our courage. In the Festival Hall, you can train your courage and juggling skills, and maybe do something you’ve never dared to do before. In the Leif Sylvester exhibition you can capture “freedom” with our new discovery hunt. In the backyard, we explore together and find out if there could be traces of freedom and play even on shitty days. When darkness falls, you can make your own rag dolls in the school room, and you can join us as we say goodnight together in the Children’s Labor Museum when darkness falls.
