Visitors can explore various rooms at their own pace, viewing monumental sculptures, tea cups, plates, vases, and other elegantly decorated items.

Informative panels and audiovisual documents explain the firm's history, its influence from the East, and its connections with royalty. The biography of Johann Friedrich Böttger, a key figure in Meissen porcelain's history, is also covered.
