No real organisation, persian part is just an assirtiment of pots and pans. Just a bit of everything but nothing that makes one go "oh that's interesting, I wanna know more" (which there isn't more).
Good and interesting collection for a small museum. Mithras exhibition was nice. Texts were in German so consider that if you want to visit.
Interesting finds are displayed in this museum that is housed in a former monastery. The building itself is interesting as well as the different archeological findings from Frankfurt and the region. It's a pity the installations end with the early medieval period (I was told the rest is in the Historical museum).
And if your German is not so good, you won't have much luck: there is almost no English descriptions anywhere...

Good museum but it needs better organisation. The main door is not easily view from the street. No indication of it.
Fantastic experience, friendly and kind staff. This is a medieval Carmelite monastery with an archaeological exhibition. Only lack ventilation during the summer, very hot and stuffy environment. Very well organized collection.
Nice collection but it would be needed to add English descriptions apart from the German ones.
The radio for English is an option but it lacks many numbers on the pieces.

The museum emerged as an independent institute from the Archaeological Department of the Historical Museum. The digital table was a great attraction for my kids, some quizzes were very interesting.
