The newly refurbished Kaiser Wilhelm Museum has full barrier-free access. The Haus Lange and Haus Esters museums are only barrier-free to a certain extent, because they are located in former residential houses that are now under a preservation order.

Kaiser Wilhelm Museum

The newly refurbished Kaiser Wilhelm Museum has full barrier-free access. All of the floors and exhibition spaces can be accessed by wheelchair without further assistance using lifts and ramps. Café, shop, admin offices and sanitary facilities are all flat accessible at ground level. Orientation is facilitated in the foyer by a system of floor markings. Those with impaired hearing can listen to audio-based guided tours via an induction loop.

Haus Lange and Haus Esters museums

The Haus Lange and Haus Esters museums are only barrier-free to a certain extent, because they are located in former residential houses that are now under a preservation order. A flat step has to be navigated in the foyer at Haus Lange. Our staff will be happy to assist. The only way up to the first floor is by means of a normal staircase. Museum Haus Esters can be accessed via a mobile ramp that will be put out as required. The toilets in both buildings are on the ground floor and are accessible at ground level. The gardens to both houses have a number of steps and cannot be accessed without assistance.

Our team of supervisors will be happy to help you on the spot.

Groups must be registered one week before. Unregistered groups may be refused admission for both security and organizational reasons. This also applies when the members of the group purchase their tickets individually. The size of any group is limited. Groups that are too large may have to be divided. House Lange and House Esters may only be entered by the divided groups one after the other.
