I spent three hours at this amazing museum. Nürnberg has an annual international toy festival every February and has a reputation for creating original and beautiful toys. A train display was especially interesting. Curiously enough, it was modeled after a train station in Oklahoma. The dolls and dollhouses were breathtaking. . .hundreds (thousands?) of early 19th century metal mechanical toys, a special display of space-age toys (lots of robots) and even fire engines and cars for pre-schoolers. They even had a play room for kids, along with an outdoor play area where they could try out old-fashioned toys on their own. I've posted a few photos from on-line, since cameras weren't allowed.
