Description Destination

From May 12th, the Brothers Grimm Society will be presenting a large interactive exhibition entitled "Once upon a time... Grimm's fairy tales in history and the present" in the Museum and Gallery of the City of Schwabmünchen (MUGS).
An exhibition for young and old: Visitors are greeted like a fairy tale in the outdoor area of ​​the MUGS, but nothing more is revealed in advance. Anyone who wanders through the exhibition rooms will come across many life-size fairy tale characters. Those who would like to be queen or king can sit on the huge golden throne chair, which is available as a selfie point.
More than 300 exhibits from the worldwide tradition and impact of the Grimm fairy tale collection are presented on three floors, including illustrations, graphics, books and much more. In addition to an insight into the biographies of the Brothers Grimm and the sources of the fairy tales, the range extends from the past to the present. The journey also takes visitors around the world. A separate focus is dedicated to the reception in Japan, where, in addition to early woodcut illustrations, manga and cosplay also play a role.
