International newspaper museum

It's a small museum and explains how journalism and media works then how it is intentionally and unintentionally manipulated. Today the problem is the financial incentive to publish pieces that generate 'clicks' measured by the internet. Although not all of the display panels are in English there is more than enough screens and loudspeakers with explanations in English. They also respond to feedback: the manon the cash desk was very welcoming and helpful; the Guardian and numerous other UK papers are listed. Plea, please add Belgium's Le Soir.
The warning from history is that when politicians have exercised control no matter how seemingly insignificant, it has invariably ended in oppression or worse.

Disappointing ! I was excited to visit this museum but walked away disappointed within 25 minutes. Basically there aren't a lot to see in this very small museum. Not an impressive collection: Mostly photocopied blown ups. Some interactive features but only scratched the surface of journalism. They do have an original print of J'Accuse ! by Emile Zola. which was the highlight of the visit.

Very nice small exhibition on newspapers and media. Several fun interactive elements. Took part in guided tour (Sunday at 14 h) which was excellent!

Nicely laid out and informative museum collection. Well worth the visit. Very helpful staff.

It is really interesting museum - this topic will always be relevant for everyone. Whole exhibition is in German - too difficult for english speakers to understand everything. There’re few iPads which has english translation - still not enough to understand everything what is shown. Bathrooms are clean, there’s also a cloakroom and 1€ deposit lockers in which you can leave your belongings

Nice local museum about the history of newspapers and media as well as about propaganda and manipulating the news. Sometimes they have extra exibitions. I enjoyed it a lot. They usually participate in the events when the museums are free in Aachen so if you are local you could save a couple of euros when going on one of those days

Nice museum to visit .It's a small newspaper museum with educational exibits and international periodicals and newspapers from around thé world. Inside their collection of over 200.000 newspapers you can find many first editions.
It is amazing to learn how news was registered , printed out and published.
