Poker, skat, canasta and other traditional card games – all playing cards are trumps at theMuseum of Playing Cards, the "Deutsches Spielkartenmuseum"! With more than 500 000 cards from seven centuries and five continents, this collection is second to none worldwide.

The Asian-Indian collection on display is regarded as the finest and most comprehensive in the world. With their unusual motifs and cultural idiosyncrasies, the cards provide rare insights into their period and place of origin. A fascinating miniature picture gallery.
In addition, the specialist library, a graphics collection and more besides provide the perfect setting for exciting temporary exhibitions and attractive events such as vernissages, games evenings and conjuring performances – making this a great place for children's outings, too!
