The Porcelain Museum

The permanent exhibition of the Meissen Porcelain Foundation Museum houses a previously unseen collection of porcelain, from monumental sculptures to the opulent swan service from the time of Augustus the Strong. With a multi-visual presentation, the museum lets the visitor immerse himself in the mysterious history of the origins of Meissen porcelain. Text overlays and film sequences make the beginning of the more than 300-year history of the manufactory an interactive experience - visitors learn interesting facts about Johann Friedrich Böttger, the famous alchemist and inventor of Meissen porcelain, and his companions. With the free WiFi in Haus Meissen, an exciting children's rally with tablets through the museum is possible. Our youngest guests go on a MEISSEN safari with our rhino and discover the figures from a whole new perspective.
