Communications Museum

 I spent most of today at the Communications Museum, which exists here in Hessen.

Now, if you went to google it up....it'd show up in Heusenstamm (about 10 miles SE of Offenbach).  And that's where my journey started out.

Well....two to three months ago, they packed up and moved to Frankfurt (along the river).  Really nice building, although 'small' (the bulk of their collection simply can't be put out on the floor.

So I had to back-track and journey back to Frankfurt-City itself.

They've got a decent collection of German-made TVs and radios from the early era.  Some of the German TVs actually go back to the late 1930s.

They also have a '330' model, which was the big cheapo radio that regular people could buy by 1927.

Artsy TVs from the early 1960s?  They've got those as well.

My advice on the museum?  It's designed for young people (teens) but the collection is worth seeing.  Southside of the river....there's at least ten museums within walking distance. 

Cost?  Five Euro per adult.

Parking is not that great, and it'd be better if you took the S-bahn into the city and walked over.

Time to allocate?  Maybe two hours.

Lunch or snacks later?  Cross the pedestrian bridge and go over to the Romer area.
