About
After regular visitors leave, the Natural History Museum in Mainz turns its halls over to families with flashlights. A guide leads the group through the dark rooms of Wilde Welten, the museum's animal exhibition, and kids pick out the woolly rhino and other displays in their own beam of light. The tour is led in German, so it suits kids who follow simple spoken German.
