The Empress Elisabeth Museum in Possenhofen is happy to have raised more than 60,000 euros.

The money provided by the CSU parliamentary group is to be used for two audio guides.

- "I'm completely floored," says the chairwoman of the association, Rosemarie Mann-Stein, on the phone about the 60,000 euro donation.

Ute Eiling-Hütig campaigned for two museum projects to be funded from the funds of the parliamentary group initiative.

And 60,000 euros of that goes to Possenhofen for the development of tour guides.

Over the past year, the museum developed an audio tour guide in six languages.

Now there should be a compressed version of the video guide for the deaf for the museum.

"The version for the deaf lasts 45 minutes," explains Mann-Stein.

That was too long for a visit to the museum.

"Then you no longer have time to look at the objects."

Mann-Stein is particularly pleased that there are now sufficient funds for a second audio guide project.

The association wants to add music to the Elisabeth-Weg, which leads through Possenhofen, Feldafing and Wolfsschlucht – also in six languages.

"The money should be enough," says Mann-Stein.

Utilization will be free for users, i.e. locals and tourists from all over the world.

"Thanks to the donation, the museum can enable visitors from all over the world to visit without barriers," says Eiling-Hütig.

Culture and inclusion are very important to her.
