Guided tour of the special exhibition "Toilet & Co. - sanitary ceramics from outhouse to high-tech toilet"


On Sunday, 9 July 2023, at 2 p.m., interested visitors can take part in a guided tour of the current special exhibition "Klo & Co. - Sanitärkeramik vom Plumpsklo bis zur Hightech-Toilette" at Porzellanikon - Staatliches Museum für Porzellan, Selb.

The tour of the exhibition is about a topic that concerns everyone, but hardly anyone talks about: the toilet. How did people go to the toilet before the invention of the water flush and how did the "quiet little toilet" develop over time? What challenges do astronauts face in space and what do toilets in prison and motorway service stations have in common?

Visitors will learn many funny, bizarre and interesting facts on the discovery tour of the cultural history of the toilet. The special exhibition is on display until 26 November 2023.

Price: Adults pay 1 € Sunday admission plus 3.50 € for the guided tour. Children up to 18 years are free. Registration at besuchercenter(at)porzellanikon.org or phone +49 9287 918000.
