RadioMuseum Köln

Imagine turning the dial on an old radio, and suddenly the world opens up in your living room. That's exactly what you experience here. Look around and discover radios that tell stories from a time when broadcasting was the sole connection to the wider world. You might hear in your mind the voice of Paul Nipkow, a pioneer in television, who left his mark here in Cologne. Behind you, notice the impressive receivers from the 1920s, when tuning in was a social event. If you listen closely, you can almost hear the echoes of broadcasts from the past. Let the magic of old technology captivate you as you step into an era when radio was the window to the world.
