How wool is turned into clothes: In the museum village we show how things to wear are made from natural raw materials in the medieval way.

From the wool of freshly shorn sheep to the finished product, on this day you can see how clothing was made in the Middle Ages. You will see typical items of clothing of the time such as the bruche (pants), the gugel (hooded throw) or the Gebände (women's headgear) being created before your very eyes. Other materials used at the time, such as flax or hemp fibres, are also presented. If you want, you can even spin, felt, dye, weave or sew yourself!

The accompanying programme for the whole family includes fairy tales about sheep and other animals as well as Fräulein Brehm's Animal Life, by her own admission "the only theatre in the world for native endangered animal species".

Price info: If possible, please book online a slot ticket in advance on the Museum Sunday Berlin ticket shop. Online tickets are available respectively one week before each Museum Sunday. For spontaneous visits, tickets are available on site.
