So that you can watch comfortably
#JapanAirlineEvent The elevators are well-equipped and the circular staircases are nicely maintained, so you can comfortably tour the Goethe Museum in Düsseldorf, Germany. People who have difficulty walking can take the elevator to visit multiple floors, and you can also visit in a wheelchair, so I recommend the Goethe Museum, which is easy for everyone to visit. #germanytravel
For the younger generation
#JapanFlightEvent I got the impression that the Goethe Museum is trying various things to keep up with the times for the younger generation. I think it's a good idea to use multimedia to help young visitors easily understand Goethe. However, since there are no English explanations, I recommend the Goethe Museum to children who can speak German.

Goethe의 시 Gingo biloba
#JapanFlightEvent At the Goethe Museum, I was able to see the work of modern artist Lore Bert called Ginkgo and works that seemed to be inspired by Goethe's poem Gingo biloba. Looking at the works that the artist made using Japanese paper, I was reminded of the fall when the ginkgo trees turn golden. I was amazed when I discovered that the artist used a Korean seal to leave on his works! I recommend it because it was nice to be able to see it together with Goethe's poem about the ginkgo tree. #germanytravel
In a nice building
#JapanFlightEvent At the Goethe Museum in Düsseldorf, Germany, I was able to see wonderful portraits of people who lived in that era and paintings that showed the lifestyles of that time. It was relatively quiet so I was able to look around comfortably, and it was fun to see small things like Goethe's handwritten letters and receipts in a wonderful building. I recommend it to those who like Goethe. #germanytravel
Make sure to go up to the 3rd floor
#JapanAirlineEvent I recommend that you visit the Goethe Museum in Dusseldorf, Germany after seeing everything, and then visit the 3rd floor. There were beautiful gold-leafed mirrors and French-style chairs that looked like they were used in palaces in the past on display, and I personally enjoyed seeing my favorite style, so I recommend it. #germanytravel

Created in the 18th century
#JapanAirlineEvent The detailed decorations and motifs drawn on the dishes and plates made in the 18th century were unique and fun to look at. Sometimes you can find oriental motifs, so I recommend stopping by the Goethe Museum in Düsseldorf, Germany. #germanycity
If you go to the Goethe Museum, go to the 3rd floor
#JapanFlightEvent The pretty and antique ceramic plates that reminded me of grape leaves caught my eye. The large ceramic soup bowls that seemed to hold soup and were meant for a large family were really big, so it was fun to see the bowls that the nobles of the time used at the Goethe Museum in Germany. They are similar to the bowls you see in most other museums, so if you go to the Goethe Museum, I recommend you also stop by the 3rd floor. #germanycity
Created in the 18th century
#JapanAirlineEvent You can see ceramic plates and teacups made in the 18th century. I personally like looking at dishes, so it was really fun to look at them. I recommend you to see them on the 3rd floor of Schloss Jägerhof, which is owned by Anton-und-Katharina-Kippenberg-Stiftung, named after the founder of the Goethe Museum. #germanycity
Goethe Museum
#JapanAirlineEvent At the Ceramic Exhibition Hall on the 3rd floor of the Goethe Museum, you can see gorgeous ceramic figures related to the style of clothing and religion worn by people in the 18th and 19th centuries. I recommend the Goethe Museum in Düsseldorf to those who are interested. #germanycity
In the city of Düsseldorf
#JapanFlightEvent The Goethe Museum building, which is easy to find because it is located in downtown Düsseldorf, is located in Schloss Jägerhof. It was built in the 18th century and went through war, but it was remodeled and reorganized and opened to the public, which was great. It seems like a great choice that the Goethe Museum opened in 1955 in this place that Goethe visited during his lifetime, so I recommend you visit. #germanytravel
