Audio Guide of the International Newspaper Museum

The museum is located in the historic 'Haus von Aachen' at Pontstraße 13 and is open Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 to 17:00 (closed on Mondays). To check for holiday changes, I recommend always consulting their official website before your visit.

Standard admission is very affordable, costing €6 for adults and €3 with reduced rate, but the best part is that access is free for those under 21. You can purchase your tickets directly at the museum's ticket office upon arrival.

A full visit usually takes between 60 and 90 minutes if you stop to explore the interactive multimedia stations. It's the perfect amount of time for a cultural immersion without getting too tired before continuing to explore Aachen.

It houses one of the largest press collections in the world, founded by Oscar von Forckenbeck, with more than 200,000 newspapers from five different centuries. In addition, the building itself dates from 1495, adding unique architectural value to the experience.

To enjoy the interactive exhibits in complete tranquility, I suggest going Tuesday through Thursday in the morning, right at opening time (10:00). Weekends tend to be busier with local and international tourists.

Yes, the International Newspaper Museum is fully accessible and has an elevator to access the different exhibition floors. It's an inclusive space designed so that all visitors can enjoy the tour without barriers.

You are in a privileged location; the famous Aachen Cathedral (UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the historic Town Hall (Rathaus) are less than a 5-minute walk away. It's ideal for combining these visits in a single morning.

Don't limit yourself to looking at the display cases; interact with the touch screens and digital databases to see news from past centuries. For a deeper experience, consider using an audio guide that narrates the context behind the historic headlines.
