It's definitely an experience... Rooms full to the brim of anything and everything that was ever made in the shape of a pig.
Very very complete museum in a small space. The only downside is they only take cash - in 2024! As a tourist I don't normally carry Euros with me but I recommend getting some before you go.
This is literally one of the best museums I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot. Yes, it's kitschy, but the collection impresses through its sheer size. I promise you have never seen this many pigs in one place.
We loved every bit of this odd experience. If in the area you should check it out! The weirdness of it all really comes together.
Wierd collection of pig parafernalia. It is also informative with some pig related data. But it is mostly random weird stuff. I would not say it is a must-visit of Stuttgart but you definitely won't find a similar museum in other places.
Its cute to see so many things in pig shape, if you are bored then this is right place. Every room has a information about pigs which is interesting and you wil get to know lot more about pigs in different country and myths relating to them. The place takes around 1 hour to see both floors.
Interesting and unexpected. I really liked the miniatures in the museum and the fact that it is really genuine, but could have been a bit "refreshed" from its old appearance, taking into consideration the entrance ticket that is not really cheap. Would have liked to buy a small souvenir but the lady that was taking care of the museum shop didn't even ask me if I wanted something else, just told me that "this is an old museum and paying is possible just by cash" ... Well a bit of upgrading would not be bad, I think! Otherwise, the collection of exponates was really cute :)
