Theaterfigurenmuseum Lübeck : info and guided tour

About Theaterfigurenmuseum Lübeck

Located at Kolk 14 in Lübeck’s old town, Theaterfigurenmuseum Lübeck is dedicated to the world of puppet theatre and stage figures. The museum brings together a collection focused on the art of puppetry, miniature sets, and the characters that bring performances to life.

The museum presents objects linked to different forms of figurative theatre, with special attention to puppets, masks, and performance accessories. Its setting combines the museum experience with that of a performance space, making it possible to discover this art form both as heritage and as a living practice.

In Lübeck’s historic district, the institution is set within an urban environment shaped by the culture and traditions of this Hanseatic city. The venue highlights a lesser-known aspect of local heritage, focusing the visit on small-scale stage creation and the techniques that support it.

Theaterfigurenmuseum Lübeck appeals both to visitors curious about specialist museums and to those interested in theatrical forms beyond the classic repertoire. The overall experience offers a clear insight into an artistic world where the making of figures, their expression, and their staging play an essential role.
