Elmshorn Industrial Museum
Here you can experience history up close! Numerous exhibits from the time of industrialization invite visitors to try things out for themselves and thus give them an understanding of what work and life at an industrial site looked like in the past.
The museum focuses on and illustrates the various trades that made Elmshorn the most important industrial location in southwest Holstein in its heyday. In addition to leather and cloth, some foodstuffs, crockery and even ships were also produced. Machines and manufactured products are exhibited on four floors. In addition to working life, the exhibition also focuses on people's everyday lives in the 1920s: Everyday objects are presented in the workers' kitchen, which can hardly be compared to the luxuries of today. Changing special exhibitions complete the offer. Thanks to the interactive nature of the exhibition, it is also wonderfully suitable for children.
