The courtyard that this museum showcases ever changing street-art. At the end of the courtyard by the Kino is this staircase and if you go up two floors you'll get to this magical store that sells graphic novels and prints of local artists. And sometimes at night there will be an artist exhibition there too.

The Museum Otto Weidt’s Workshop for the Blind tells the story of the workshop. The owner of the small factory, Otto Weidt, employed mainly blind and deaf Jews here during World War II. They produced brooms and brushes. Various life stories tell of Otto Weidt’s efforts to protect his Jewish workers from persecution and deportation. When the threat grew ever greater he found places for some of them to hide. One of these was on the premises of what is now the museum. Public tours of the Museum Otto Weidt's Workshop for the Blind (free of charge) are held at 3 p.m. every Sunday.
