Red Cross Museum Nuremberg
The Nuremberg Red Cross Museum is the largest of 15 museums in the Federal Republic of Germany dedicated to the history and activities of the Red Cross . In addition to various other exhibits, the museum has a vehicle hall in which Red Cross vehicles from different eras are shown.
The starting point of the museum was the private collection of Gerhard Gebuhr, who was a convoy of the Nuremberg Medical Column I from 1959 to 1981. On June 14, 1984, the museum was opened to the public on the grounds of the Nuremberg City District Association of the Bavarian Red Cross . This association is still the museum sponsor today. In 1991 the collection moved to the former caretaker's building and a second floor was added. Three years later a garage for historic ambulances was built. From December 2003 to March 2004 the premises were renovated and the interior redesigned.
Today the museum has eight exhibition rooms with an area of around 500 square meters. In addition to the vehicle collection, equipment, uniforms, awards, books and other writings as well as posters from the history of the Red Cross are shown. The museum's volunteers have particular expertise in restoring historic vehicles.
The museum is financed by income from admission fees and donations as well as from the sale of limited editions of Schuco model cars of the "Piccolo" type. In 2002 a support group was founded.
The museum is a member of the working group of the German Red Cross Museums .
