Phallic. Fun. Fein. The Currywurst Museum.
Nothing says a good time like a good ol’ sausage couch.
I’m not sure exactly what we were thinking but it definitely wasn’t this.
Currywurst is a cultural staple in Germany. With humble beginnings in Berlin, Herta Heuwer was able to attain curry, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce from British troops on the black market during World War II. Little did she know it would turn into the craze that it is today. I’m pretty sure she didn’t envision a building decorated in inflatable ketchup and curry wallpaper.
Everything you ever wanted to know about currywurst can be found here. Take your time, interact, explore.
Pick up a ketchup bottle and it will play a jingle.
Look at a map of Berlin to find all of the currywurst vendors.
Write about how currywurst changed your life in the massive guest book. Shaun did.
Hug a huge french fry. It was cuddly.
Virtually prepare some sausage for sale.
Learn the entire lifecycle of your paper currywurst plate from tree to compost.
Play with plastic sausage.
Ogle.
Eat.
And while it was a bit pricey for about an hour of childish giggles, it was TOTALLY worth it. I mean, when else are you going to be able to get pictures like this?
Deutsches Currywurst Museum Berlin
Admission: 9€ (with a small currywurst sample) and 13€ with a 3 plate sampler.
I just had to make this visit as well. Just couldn’t resist (plus it got me out of the snow for a while.) And surprisingly, I also found it rather enjoyable!
STOP! That couch is seriously the funniest, most provocative thing I’ve ever seen!
Even better than the Phallic Museum in Iceland.
Glad about your visit! Nice post! Nice pictures! Marvellous tattoos and hair cut too! 🙂
QWoo,
Mascot of Deutsches Currywurst Museum Berlin
OK, I know where I’m going when I visit Berlin.
Haha I didn’t even know this existed! My hubby would have loved this place!!
Yeah.. I wanna sit in the sausage couch too.
It’s really nice and cute.
I also think it’s a bit expensive…. but SOOOOOOO cool! I want to hug Frech Fries as well!!!!
Yummieeee
And indeed, the coolest photos!
Amazing! I’m a sucker for kitsch, so I would love this place despite not really loving currywurst 🙂
MeatWater? Tell me you tried it?!?!
Hilarious!! I want to hug the fries I had last night YUM. I may not love “red sauce,” but nothing beats a good Italian sausage… In the most innocent way. 😉
Haha, what a random museum! Although that sausage couch actually manages to look somewhat 60s mod.
YESSSSSSSSS! It. Was. AWESOME. Did you get the currywurst plate after?
RIGHT?! I should have done a tiger claw pose.
…it is weird that I’m drawn to these things. 😛
Thanks for stopping by to comment! 😀 We had a BLAST!
Oh there is SO MUCH for you to see.
UmmmHmmm… It was amazing and I feel like my life has changed knowing this exists.
I totally understand. I had wanted to go to this museum for some time so I was willing to pay the cost to get in. I think the sausage couch alone is worth it. 😛
YES. So you understand my glee when it comes to things like this. Who in their right mind decided to make a MUSEUM?
OH HELL NO.
There is nothing like french fries. I had some with a habanero sauce the other night and it was HEAVEN.
…and good lord you’re killing me with your comment.
Yup. I totally get it. Would be different if it wasn’t sausage colored though.
Was it comfi? If it was comfi, it definitely was wordt it:D
Why yes, yes I did. How could I resist. Of course, my phone ran out of juice as I was finishing up my photos of the samples 🙁 Quite an interesting difference in the flavors and textures…
