Everything from fairy tales for primary school pupils to the Brothers Grimm’s working methods in the Age of Romanticism for secondary school students—the GRIMMWELT offers points of interest and reference for all age groups.
Teaching modules can be assembled individually and adjusted to comply with school curriculum requirements.
There is lots to learn, experience and discover here—including hands-on activities and exhibits you can touch. The GRIMMWELT is not a museum, but an experience space—not just for adults. We turn education into first-hand experience!

Our workbooks are the ideal way for students to explore the exhibition and follow up the visit in class afterwards.
The class can take the audio walk tour of Kassel to round off the visit to the exhibition.
The “Tell me your (hi)story” programme provides particularly valuable support for projects on intercultural work.
