German Record Museum - Where the sound came into the groove.... Everything here revolves around the world of music - from the manufacturing process of a record to the more than 100-year history of sound recordings. The museum is housed in the historic boiler house of TELDEC, the only surviving building from the time when the company that merged from Telefunken and Decca was Nortorf's largest employer. Even back then, Nortorf was called "The City of the Record". No fewer than 850 million shellac and later vinyl records were pressed in the production halls by 1987, including musical treasures from musical legends such as the Rolling Stones and the Beatles, Elvis Presley and Udo Lindenberg. The old factory clock in the shape of a record, now visible from afar and now on the facade of the German Record Museum, is also a reminder of the old days. An unusually varied exhibition awaits you inside. The centerpiece is around 200,000 records, mainly from donations from the NDR record archives in Kiel and Hamburg. In addition, there are lots of exciting exhibits on the two floors and on the gallery: from the old, heavy pressing machines to rare pickups such as the Edison phonograph, iconic jukeboxes and the most modern music system. Many people will probably come across good old friends from their own youth here, such as the small portable transistor radio or even the mobile record player for the beach. Various films provide clear information about the production process of records. And if you feel like it, you can even sit on high bar stools at a 1950s counter like in the old days and immerse yourself in the music with handheld headphones. Changing exhibitions, various events and a museum shop round off the offering of our barrier-free, modern museum. Free parking for visitors is available right next to the museum entrance, additional parking spaces are available at the town hall of Nortorf. https://museum-nortorf.de/

The former Nortorf Record Museum has been transformed into the "German Record Museum," now located in the historic Teldec boiler house. Expanded by the donation of the NDR Record Archives in Kiel/Hamburg, it features an exciting and highly topical exhibition by ELAC and many other new attractions.

Entry to the German Record Museum from 1989, where TELDEC used to press around 850 million records, costs €4. The small, manageable museum in the historic pump house is run by volunteers. You can play the DJ at the juke box for free.

There is a swimming area here on Seedorfer Weg opposite the 🅿️. Unfortunately it is in full shade. Immediately to the west is the sunny lakeside bathing establishment, which is subject to a fee.
