About
A museum of world cultures on Maximilianstraße, with objects from every continent. Permanent galleries cover Oceania's carved masks and boards, a Buddha hall, Myanmar's pagodas and spirit figures, Japan through a painter's travel souvenirs, Sub-Saharan Africa, Southwest Asia and North Africa, and Central and South America.
A free activity booklet from the ticket desk sends kids around every permanent gallery, and creative workshops turn what they saw into art.
