What did ancient Egyptians write on? Papyrus was expensive and precious, but what about sherds? Did you know they can bring luck? Discover some 300 fascinating exhibits in the permanent exhibition of the Papyrus Museum of the Austrian National Library. Age-appropriate guided tours are offered for groups of children aged 8 to 12 years. Take your pupils or children on a fascinating journey through 3000 years of Egyptian cultural history in the Papyrus Museum. Tip: Combine the tour with the workshop “Writing on Papyrus.” This way, after the exploration tour of the museum, your pupils will even learn to write their own name in hieroglyphs on proper papyrus! When visiting individually, a Combi Ticket is available, which will grant you access to the Globe Museum and Literature Museum Grillparzer House as well.
