Museum of work

Wiesendamm 3
Hamburg, Hamburg 22305

This museum is mainly concerned with the way in which life and work has changed over the last 150 years. It is located in what used to be a rubber factory. The process of industrialization and the accompanying social, cultural and economic changes are portrayed in an interesting way - the effects on mankind, society and the environment are well traced and documented. The museum's entire collection is not on display, which is not surprising given that it is always searching for new acquisitions which are connected to everyday life and work.
