Description [EN]
The Bed and Sleep Museum is a private museum founded in 2012 in the Saxon city of Freiberg. The exhibition covers about 600 m² and deals with bed and sleep culture. Opened on 10 November 2012, the museum is thematically devoted to the role of sleep throughout human history and development, including sleep in children and adolescents and sleep in old age, sleep phenomena such as sleepwalking, sleep apnea, snoring and dreaming. The museum offers insight into the origins, causes and consequences of sleep disorders and provides suggestions for healthy sleep hygiene. At the same time, it shows how people have slept in the past and present. The museum’s opening was preceded by years of research and a collection of exhibits by the museum director Thomas Uhlmann. The collection includes over 100 exhibits in conditions ranging from new to no longer functional; no restoration measures are planned. About 120 information panels provide background on the history of beds and sleep. A microscope workstation allows visitors to view various bed fillings under magnification (sheep’s wool, wild silk, cashmere, camel wool, lyocell, polyester fibers, as well as feathers and down). As a promotional vehicle for the affiliated specialist bed shop, admission is free. www.
