Why choose Wax of Legends for your school trip?

Here, pupils don't learn by rote: they listen to stories, play, explore — and remember. The legends of Alsace and the great figures of history come to life before their eyes.

Learning through play

Children remember what they experience — games and storytelling do the rest.

Welcoming your group

We stagger class arrivals, and since your visit is booked your class is expected: the teacher checks in at reception and we take the class straight in, with no queuing at the door.

Coaches

The museum is in Colmar's pedestrianised city centre. Coaches drop off their passengers and park at Place Lacarre or Rue de la Cavalerie, the two locations designated by the city, about a 10-minute walk away. Group leaders go free.

Our tips for a smooth visit

  • The tour is designed to be enjoyed as a group: every pupil stays with a supervising adult throughout the visit.
  • Groups move through the rooms at a calm pace, for the comfort of your class and of other visitors.
  • The sets and figures are fragile: admire them with your eyes, not your hands.
  • In the shop, an adult stays with pupils while they choose and pay for their purchases.
