The Lippisches Landesmuseum, located in the heart of Detmold, houses extensive collections in the fields of art, culture, and natural history. The selection of exhibits ranges from Stone Age artifacts to historical toys, furniture, clothing, and valuable oil paintings. The exhibition "Mythos" showcases the most comprehensive collection nationwide on the history of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest between the Germanic tribes and the Romans. Numerous objects and modern media illustrate how this historical event became a myth of German history.
The "Cultures of the World" collection holds a very special treasure: a 6,500-year-old child mummy from Peru. It is considered the oldest mummy that can be viewed in Europe, older than Ötzi and nearly twice as old as the mummy of the pharaoh Tutankhamun.
Local forests and exotic animal worlds from savannas, rainforests, and polar regions can all be experienced in one place. The animals are realistically displayed in their habitats, and interactive modules and stations make exploring this section a must for families with children.
