(Deutsch) NARRENSCHOPF
Lively, colorful, and visually stunning
Located in Bad Dürrheim´s spa gardens, the privately run Swabian-Alemannic Carnival Museum “Narrenschopf” features around 300 jester figures, mainly from Baden-Württemberg and German-speaking areas of Switzerland, housed under its three characteristic domes. Built in 1973, the museum is located in the center of the territory of the Union of Swabian-Alemannic Jester Guilds (Vereinigung Schwäbisch-Alemannischer Narrenzünfte, VSAN) and boasts an exhibition area of 1,200 square meters, very likely the largest of its kind. Since 2014, the Swabian-Alemannic Carnival has been listed on the national list of intangible cultural heritage sites.

CLUB
The Bad Dürrheim Jesters Club (Verein Narrenschopf Bad Durrheim e.V.) was founded in 1980; in 1981, it took over operations of the Carnival Museum Narrenschopf, which had previously been operated by Kur- and Bäder GmbH Bad Durrheim. Since 2018 the museum is operated by the VSAN. However, the Bad Dürrheim Jesters Club still is an important supporter of the museum.
