Using selected objects, events, personalities, media installations and activity stations, we follow the development of democracy in Bavaria and explain how it works during the dialogical tour. Voting in the original state parliament from 1946 included!

They also find out why debating and arguing are irreplaceable. Finally, a breath of fresh air blows through the original Museum Landtag when the young people debate current issues!
