The Neues Museum Nürnberg is fully accessible. The entrance at Klarissenplatz is step-free, and all exhibition spaces, as well as the foyer and auditorium, can be easily reached via ramps or elevators. Wheelchairs and walkers are available free of charge, and accessible restrooms and seating areas are provided. Assistance dogs are welcome.

If you have questions or need support, our team at the ticket counter will be happy to assist you.
How does the online ticket work?
When you click on “Buy online ticket”, you will be redirected to our new ticket shop. There you can select and purchase admission tickets or tickets for events. With your purchased ticket you have direct access to the exhibition rooms – please show it at the entrance.
Where can I book guided tours?
You can book guided tours directly in our online ticket shop. Please bring your ticket either printed out or on your smartphone. Of course, you can still purchase tickets as usual at the museum ticket counter.
Are there lockers?
Please store your bags and backpacks in the lockers during your visit. For safety reasons, bags larger than DIN A4 (approx. 20 × 30 cm), suitcases, backpacks, bulky items, and umbrellas may not be taken into the exhibition rooms. Lockers are available in the Upper and Lower Foyer (deposit: 1 euro coin, free use). Unfortunately, we cannot store large suitcases.

We need an initiative like this!

There is a multimedia guide for the exhibition that allows you to obtain more information about the works on your own mobile device. What makes it special is that you can also use the guide outside opening hours at Klarissenplatz or at home.
