    RITSCH RATSCH – Powered by Sappi | Papier ganz nah

    A pig-tastic paper adventure, ideal for children aged 3 and up

    Come, visit the Piggy Book, and end up in a story in which paper plays the leading role! Pigs accompany you on your adventure. You create paper costumes and build houses out of boxes with them. You slide into the big pool of paper, make paper sound or do magic with it. Fold, cut or weave, crumple, crease or glue … Try out what paper can do, sheet by sheet!

    The exhibition is fully accessible!
