Shoemaker Museum

A small museum at a Torgau master shoemaker

The small shoemaking museum is located in Torgau, home to a master shoemaker who still masters his craft today. A guided tour of the exhibition on the historical shoemaking trade offers school classes, families, and adults a journey through time from the Middle Ages to the present day.

Group tours are available by arrangement at any time. For kindergarten and preschool groups, there are special tours on the topic of "Shoes and Fairy Tales" where children playfully discover the significance of shoes in well-known stories. Schoolchildren can choose between the topics "Shoes Through the Ages" or "Crafts in the Middle Ages" for a fascinating insight into the development of the shoemaking trade. Practical projects are also offered, allowing participants to get creative themselves.
