Event information
Date & time
The large PLAYMOBIL exhibition by diorama artist Oliver Schaffer at the Salder Castle Municipal Museum now has a new look: acrobats, clowns and happy organic cows have moved in where there was recently a Christmas market.
With the large-scale installation of a colorful circus world and a modern organic farm, the show is setting new accents just in time for spring 2026.
The new highlight of the exhibition is the "Circus Romani", which takes guests into the magical world of artistry from 1991. The centerpiece is the magnificent circus arena, in which detailed scenes from high-wire artistry to trick riding can be seen. Visitors can now immerse themselves in a sparkling circus ring, which shows acrobatic performances, exotic animals and a variety of clowns and artists in detailed scenes. The highlight: All sets are from the 90s and take PLAYMOBIL fans back to their own nostalgic PLAYMOBIL memories.
As a contrast to the colorful circus hustle and bustle, an organic farm has been skillfully staged in a display case. Here, the theme of sustainability can be experienced in a playful way: from photovoltaic systems on the roofs of the stables to species-appropriate free-range farming and the farm store with regional products, the diorama reflects modern agricultural trends.
By the way: All playsets in the new PLAYMOBIL farm world are made from more than 80 percent sustainable materials.
In addition to the large scenes in the special exhibition hall "Kuhstall", there is also plenty for young and old to discover in the castle! On all floors, small, very fine scenes can be found in the permanent exhibition showcases.
Visitors can be inspired by the PLAYMOBIL magic and experience an inspiring break from everyday life!
Admission is free.

Side program PLAYMOBIL exhibition
Guided tours of the exhibition for daycare groups
The museum also offers an accompanying program to the current PLAYMOBIL exhibition for daycare and after-school groups. Children aged three to six can playfully discover the lovingly designed PLAYMOBIL worlds and then design their own winter dreams in a creative craft workshop.
As part of the museum's educational program, the young participants first embark on a guided journey of discovery through the exhibition and explore enchanted winter landscapes, encounter animals in the snow and discover imaginative PLAYMOBIL scenes. Afterwards, the children create their own little winter work of art.
The program lasts around 90 minutes and is ideal for daycare outings in winter. Participation is only possible after prior registration. Register at museumstadt.salzgitterde
