Descripción: Mannheim.
«The museum's unique style of modern architecture represents an exhibition that shows the history of technology, and its social aspects in a new and unconventional way. The visitor can experience sixteen stages of the technical and social development of the last two and a half centuries by passing from top to bottom through six floors (A-F).
The themes of the exhibition are reflected by examples which show the important events and the different phases of the industrial revolution of the region. They explain how technical innovations changed working and living conditions. Travelling through space and time the visitor looks at historical figures, buildings and landscapes, i. e. figured aspects of special historical situations and events like the French revolution or the First World War etc.»
