    I am planning a trip to Germany (especially South Germany) in a few months. If you have any recommendations for tech history, museums, industrial sites, nerdy things, I would appreciate them.

    Stuff like Deutsches Museum, the cool train in Wuppertal, Arithmeum and Analog Computer Museum, ZKM, Landschaftspark… Anti-recommendations (“overrated,” “not worth the time”) are also welcome.

    Thank you in advance!

    @mwichary In #Berlin I can't recommend Berliner Unterwelten enough. Guided underground tours including a cold war nuclear bunker hidden in plain sight, WW2 bunkers and even a tour showing a tunnel under the Berlin wall. https://www.berliner-unterwelten.de/en/index.html

      @mwichary You could also try the computer games museum (https://www.computerspielemuseum.de/) and something more mainstream like the German Museum of Technology (https://technikmuseum.berlin/)

        @mwichary I only have a recommendation that's a little north from the middle of Germany in Paderborn.

        We visited the > Heinz Nixdorf Forum < there last year and I can wholeheartedly recommend it! It as a computer and technology museum 🙂 I didn't manage to see everything there in one day and want to revisit it this year ^^

            @mwichary I can't add anything new, but the Deutsches Museum was great, if you haven't been there. Have a great trip

              @mwichary @yvg I second that recommendation. On "Zollverein" also worth a visit the
              Red Dot Design Museum:

                Andechs!

                "The roots of the #Andechs brewing tradition extend back to serving the pilgrims that have been coming to the Holy Mountain since 1128. The #Benedictines have been serving pilgrims in Andechs since 1455, receiving them with hospitality. The monastery brewery is committed to sustainable growth and maintaining the monastic identity to this day."

                I've been there twice, well worth it if you like #beer, #history, or #religion... or all three!

                Link Preview Image
                Monastery brewery - Kloster Andechs

                The Andechs Monastery brewery is one of the last genuine monastery breweries managed by an active religious order, entirely independent of corporations. Benedictines of St. Boniface Abbey in Munich and Andechs represent a special monastic brewing tradition. Here beers can mature into an “enjoyment for the body and soul”.

                  @mwichary A random thing that comes to mind should you for some reason end up in Stuttgart with an evening to spare.
                  Catch a show at Planetarium Stuttgart where Zeiss pioneered a lot of its projection technology for astronomy shows.

                    Stuttgart is worth a visit with the Mercedes and the Porsche Museum both here - If you Like Cars. Also in the townhall If Stuttgart operates one of the Last open elevators ("Paternoster") of Germany

                      I was going to recommend #surfing in #Munich but apparently this has disappeared in the past few days! 🙁

                      The world’s most unlikely surf break has suddenly vanished

                      The Eisbach Wave, one of Munich’s most offbeat attractions, suddenly disappeared late last year. But its once turbulent waters could well serve as a metaphor.

                        @mwichary if you come to Munich, visit Deutsches Museum. They also have a branch about avionics (Flugwerft Schleißheim) and a branch about cars and trains (Verkehrszentrum).

                          @mwichary plan at least two days for Deutsches Museum, and the Verkehrsmuseum right next to where Oktoberfest happens is worth another day.
