Accessibility

Welcome to the Museum of Communication Frankfurt!

We look forward to welcoming all visitors. Our building and its facilities are open to all. Therefore, we are continuously working on making the visit to the museum as barrier-free as possible for as many people as possible. Have lots of fun!

Anfahrt

There is a public car park for people with disabilities in front of the museum. The public space in front of the museum is paved with a standard, easily accessible surface. From the intersection of Schaumainkai and Schweizer Straße, there is a slight slope “down” to the museum.

You can find more information here: How to find us (PDF)

Zugang

Access to the museum building is via a ramp or a staircase with 9 steps (each approx. 11 cm high) and all levels can be reached via a language-assisted elevator.

Service

Our museum shop is located in the spacious reception area on the ground floor. The café can be found on the same level at the back of the building. The lockers, the toilet and a first aid room are located in the basement. A wheelchair and magnifying glasses can be borrowed if needed. Assistance animals are welcome.

Ausstellungen

A clear route and presentation, as well as easy-to-understand bilingual texts and many opportunities for interaction, enable all visitors to explore and understand our exhibitions individually or in groups. Trained staff, our communicators, will be happy to assist you with orientation in terms of content and space.

Barrierearme Vermittlung

We are an educational centre and try to facilitate new ways of looking at our subject matters with all our senses. Easy-to-understand language, suitable for your group, enables a museum experience that is as barrier-free as possible. You can find our barrier-free services here.

Eintrittspreis

A reduced entrance fee of €4 is charged for visitors with a 50% degree of disability or more. The accompanying person registered on the disabled person’s pass or a needed assistant is admitted free of charge.
