Heel mooi, alleen jammer dat de frituur eerder sluit dan het museum. Wij waren er om half 4, en wilden na afloop friet eten, (het museum sluit om 17:00 uur) maar kregen te horen dat de frituur om 16:15 sloot. Zodoende hadden we dus te weinig tijd voor het museum.

Mega Erlebnis - wenn man rein kommt riecht es nach Pommes. Selbst meinem 2 jährigen hat es gefallen, da interaktive Elemente verbaut sind. Was schade war, ist, dass wenn man auf 2 Etagen lang erfährt, wie perfekte Pommes gemacht werden, erwartet man unten im Lokal „die perfekten Pommes“ - leider war es nicht so. Sonst aber einen Ausflug wert

The museum is very informative about the history of potato in an interesting way .. my kids really enjoyed it .. don’t throw away your receipt , it gives you a discount in the fries at the end of the tour .. I advice purchasing the ticket online from GetYourGuid , it really offers you “ fast track” for entry
