Under the motto "drinking culture from five centuries", around 1200 beer mugs from the years 1550 to 1925, mostly from the private collection of senior brewery manager Jürgen Josef Ott, have been inviting visitors on an exciting journey through the history of beer since 1994. The extraordinary collector's items include an ostrich egg mug from 1670 and the largest hand-carved wooden beer mug in the world, made from 250-year-old oak beams. With a height of 1.80 meters, a capacity of 110 liters and a weight of 68 kilograms, it makes the hearts of beer fans beat faster. Jar materials range from silver, porcelain, ebony, ivory, marble, crystal and glass to exotic fabrics such as coconut shells. World travelers from different countries brought these exhibits with them to Germany. So far, over a million interested guests from all over the world have found their way to the beer mug museum, which has meanwhile developed into a tourist crowd puller beyond the region. The beer mug used to be both an investment and a status symbol and had a great tradition over the centuries. No wonder that the antique collectibles surpass each other in originality and individuality. The beer mug culture only came to an end in 1925, when machine production began and mugs became affordable for everyone.
