Night of the museums Cologne

Tip
Festival/open-air

The cultural highlight of the year

Night at the Museum — seafarers, wild animals, Stone Age people and all the other exhibits wake up and spring into frenetic activity, at least in the film of the same name. During Cologne’s Museum Night, there won’t be any dinosaurs or key-stealing monkeys coming back to life, but your experiences will be just as exciting, thanks to the special atmosphere of this event. That’s what always happens when museums and diverse art venues in Cologne make an exception and open their doors at night,. Many surprises lie hidden behind their doors. So be sure to note the next Museum Night in Cologne in your calendar — because the concept always attracts throngs of night owls.
