The Shoe Quarter is closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day
Here you can feel materials - old and new -, browse through magazines and books, pick up images, attend lectures. In our Knowledge Center you will never run out of things to learn.
In our educational programs, we connect regional history and cultural heritage, craft knowledge and skills to contemporary design, materials and technology, sustainability and current issues.
Admission to the library is included in the museum ticket. We have an extensive collection of books and magazines focused on leather (alternatives), shoes and fashion.
In the education room in the knowledge center, school classes attend special programs and workshops for children are held.
The Shoe Quarter is not only a place to experience things by looking, but also by doing. The knowledge center hosts a variety of activities.
A cabinet with the shoe as its starting point. Because the shoe connects the labs, the museum and the knowledge center. All materials can be taken out of the closet and studied, not only with the eyes but also with the hands.
