Munich - Valentin-Musäum

The Valentin-Musäum - the spelling is deliberate, in keeping with the irreverent spirit of the place - commemorates, with the aid of pictures, curios and humorous documents etc., the popular actor-comedian Karl Valentin (1882-1948) and his comic partner Liesl Karlstadt. Very much a Munich "character", Valentin was particularly noted for his witty dialogues.

In the north gate-tower there is a museum of folk music and a folk-singers' cafe in the style of a turn-of-the-century coffee house.
