Tips & Advice
- Book your tickets online to pay less, but expect a wait at the entrance on busy days even if you already have a ticket.
- Children under 14 must be with an adult, so families should plan for a grown-up to go along with every group of kids.
- If you're driving, take the A7 exit Giengen/Herbrechtingen and follow the teddy-head signs to the visitor car park, which charges by the hour.
- If you're coming by train, follow the red bear paws from Giengen station and you'll reach the museum on foot in about three minutes.
- Bring your disability ID if you need a companion, because companions of visitors with a "B" on the ID get in free once it's shown.
Special Events & Promotions
- Tickets cost less when you book online.
- Children up to 5 and Steiff Club members get in free.
