Ghosts, Stories, and Creative Museum Fun in Jena
When Halloween vibes are in the air, a special family experience awaits at the Jena City Museum: In Are There Ghosts in the Museum?, children aged six and up listen to an exciting ghost story and then embark on their own exploration tour.
A Mysterious Story to Listen To
The central story is The Museum Ghost. A Story from the Jena City Museum. While being read, images come to life in the children's minds before they join their companions in discovering what lies behind the mysterious sounds and stories surrounding the museum cellar.
Exploring the City Museum
The subsequent tour combines child-friendly learning with curiosity and movement. Children explore the museum playfully and engage with age-appropriate questions about history, old buildings, and mysterious tales. This strengthens observation skills, imagination, and the joy of discovering together.
Getting Creative in the Museum Workshop
After the museum exploration, it's time for the museum workshop. Here, each child crafts their own ghost along with a sleeping trunk to take home. This creative offer supports fine motor skills, independent creation, and the learning experience of continuing what has been experienced with their own hands.
