One of the better ways to spend a day in Munich, especially with kids. The Deutsches Museum sits on…read morea small island in the Isar and covers pretty much every corner of science and technology, and what makes it stand out is how much of it you can actually touch and interact with: cranks to turn, experiments to run, buttons that do things. It's not just cases full of objects behind glass. Depending on your party and how they like these type of things, plan for at least half a day; the place is enormous and easy to get lost in, which is half the fun. The kids' sections held up well for the younger ones, and the aviation and engineering exhibits kept the adults just as occupied. You can bring in food and some of the areas allow food and drinks so bring your lunch and find a place in the halls to sit if you want to. Buy your ticket online before you go. The walk-up queue when we visited was long enough to lose a meaningful chunk of your day, and there's no reason to stand in it. Depending on which ticket type you get, you may need to stop at the information desk to convert to a paper ticket before entry, which nobody tells you upfront. Some visitors seemed to go straight through; we did not. Either way, sort that out before you walk to the entry gate or you'll end up backtracking.

We spent a full five hours here yesterday and it was amazing. Most of our time went into the…read morechemistry, music, mathematics, and health sections--so much to learn, so little time. We arrived around 11 a.m., which worked out perfectly and gave us enough time to explore most of the exhibits. The cafeteria was extremely crowded with limited seating, probably because it's peak holiday season. The food was fine--typical cafeteria fare. Next time we're in Munich, I'd happily come back to see the exhibits we missed. My teenage kids even said this is the best museum they've ever visited, and they've been to many museums around the world. Definitely a memorable experience for all of us.

While the town of Ebensee has a nice museum commemorating the Ebensee Concentration Camp…read more(Konzentrationslager Ebensee or KZ Ebensee), this is the actual site. After the war, the area was rezoned for a housing development and much of the camp is now family homes and gardens. However, some of the site remains along with a memorial wall. The museum in town is also on yelp and called "Zeitgeschichte Museum und KZ-Gedenkstätte Ebensee" and you should start there and then come visit the actual site. Its web site is http://www.memorial-ebensee.at/ There is no website for the site, but you can get lots of great info on wikipedia or at: http://en.tracesofwar.com/article/1287/Memorial-and-Cemetery-Concentration-Camp-Ebensee.htm There is not much parking or even great signage to get to the camp location, but it is worth a visit. There are also "Tunnels" you can visit that were dug by this camp's prisioners during the war to hide underground the V2 rocket production. The museum can tell you more.

Can also take Tram 6 but we couldn't figure out where to get it - also we were told it'll involve a bit of walk once you get there. The Spanish hall is the highlight and pretty amazing. The portrait galleries - is extensive and gets a bit monotonous. Not the most distinguished looking building - worth checking out if you have the time.
