The interesting Weimarhaus is well worth a visit for those wanting to learn more about the region's long, rich history.
Exhibits and displays of waxwork characters deal with the first historical appearances of mankind in the Stone Age right up to the classical era for which the city is best known. Adding to the experience is the clever use of lighting and sound effects, along with (in places) fitting musical accompaniment.
Of particular interest are the dioramas and depictions of historically accurate scenes involving Weimar's best-known residents, including Schiller and Goethe, some of which are animatronic.
