German Mineral Museum

Mineral collection near the old town, strong on crystals, agates, and worked stones.

The German Mineral Museum sits near the old Oberstein sights and leans toward geology: crystals, agates, minerals, and the raw beauty of stones before they become jewellery. It is a natural companion to the town's gemstone shops.

The displays are old-school but rewarding if you like minerals even a little. Visit it before or after the Felsenkirche climb; the museum is close enough to make the pairing easy.
