Where to find us
Neanderthal Museum
Talstrasse 300
40822 Mettmann
Immerse yourself in 4 million years of human history! In our family-friendly and multi-award-winning exhibition, you will find the answers to the key questions ‘Where do we come from?’, ‘Who are we?’ and ‘Where are we going?’. You will meet our most famous ancestors - and of course the Neanderthals.
Extended until November 2, 2025
When you think of Neanderthals, do you also think of muscle-bound men hunting mammoths? Time to change this image! In ‘Stereotypes Neanderthal woman’, we provocatively question our current ideas about prehistoric Neanderthal communities and do away with old clichés and role models.
Fancy an exciting day out for the whole family in your neighbourhood? Six exciting indoor and outdoor highlights await you around the Neanderthal Museum and the famous discovery site.
Stone Age experiences for companies, birthdays, school classes...
In addition to our exhibitions, you can also experience the Stone Age up close in our holiday programmes, guided tours, workshops and much more - or you can book us for company celebrations or other events.
Don't worry, in the FAQ - frequently asked questions we have answers to all questions that concern the history of mankind. If you can't find what you're looking for there either, you can also contact us directly.
