"Die Kiste," the museum of the Augsburg Puppet Theater, occupies a floor above the theater in the Heilig-Geist-Spital, a former hospital preserved as a historic monument. The Augsburger Puppenkiste is a cultural institution in Germany — its television productions of Jim Knopf and Urmel have been beloved since the 1960s. The museum displays the original marionettes and traces the history of the theater from its founding in 1948.
