Loads of Celtic and Roman artifacts. I would say it is only second to the treasure trove in the Naples, Italy Archaeological Museum. There are Celtic items on display that were found in burial pots: arm and leg rings, belt buckles, weapons from 1300 B.C.!! You could easily spend three to four hours in here. Celtic warrior grave artifacts are here. Magnificent Roman tombs with elaborate artwork from the 1st and 2nd century AD are plentiful. Definitely pay for the audio guide, it is very informative. Many examples of 2,000-year-old Roman flooring in this excellent museum. Medusa, Oedipus, Amazon Women, chariot racers, boxers – just to name a few artwork pieces preserved over the past 2,000 years. Medieval Christian statues are plentiful as well. 8 € entrance fee for adults, 4€ for kids, believe me this place is worth it!!

This small museum in the beautiful former home of the richest inhabitants in the town at the time gives us a good taste of how life was in the Mosel in the ‘olden days’. At EUR 3 for the entrance fee it’s a bargain too!

Truly outstanding collection of Buddha’s. The passion and obsession of this collector is incredible and highlights the variety of Buddha’s created in the different countries of which we were not very aware of beforehand. Highly recommend this

Highly recommended! You can take the train to Cochem. The station is about ten minutes from the town centre. There is a tourist information and the shuttle bus leaves from one of the bus stands outside (just ask at the tourist information if you need help - they were really friendly). The bunker itself is a five minute drive away. The tour lasted about an hour. I did the German-language tour (and German is not my first language). Your German will need to be good if you do the German language tour as an explanation is needed. I believe there are also English-language tours as well. The only slight criticism is the group size. There were about 28 in my group and we didn't always fit in the same room as the guide which also made it a little difficult to catch everything that was being said. However, this was all in all a minor point and the passion and enthusiasm of the guide was clear and made this a really interesting tour. Cochem is a beautiful town and you could easily make a full-day trip here.

In absoluter Dunkelheit führen blinde und sehbehinderte Mitarbeiter die Besucher durch einen Parcours in den Ausstellungsräumen. Die Besucher erleben dort unterschiedliche Alltagssituationen, wie z.B. den Besuch eines Cafés ohne Augenlicht auf eine ganz neue Weise.

We didn’t know what to expect (accidentally stumbled upon it, but had luck to be stopped by a visually impaired person who was willing to explain us everything in simple German and find an English speaking guide only for us), but we had an amazing experience and we would recommend it to everyone. We stayed for more than an hour, but it felt like 10 minutes! 5/5
