Description
Vogelsang Red Cross Museum is based in the wonderful Eifel Wildlife Park and offers two exhibitions housed in separate buildings: the North Rhine House and the Humanitarium. Two tours that focus on different aspects will guide you through the eventful history of the Red Cross as a human rights organisation.
Since May of 2019, the North Rhine House has hosted a permanent exhibition featuring the 150-year history of the Red Cross in Germany, taking the Rhineland in particular into account. Visitors set out on an exciting trip through time from 1859 to the present.
