Fascinating History and Technology
I have always been fascinated by the zeppelins and took the opportunity to visit the museum when we were in Konstanz. It was a rainy day (Monday 24 October) so it was perfect for being inside the museum. The museum was very crowded that day - many students and children. That made the tour a little challenging. Many of the exhibits had narratives in both German and English, however, there were some that had no English. We don't speak German so that is the reason I rated the museum "Very Good" instead of "Excellent." The recreations of the passenger spaces, the gas and fuel storage, the bridge, etc. all added to making the visit very good. What I can criticize is the parking and the way it is marked. I was driving a rental auto and it took me probably 10-15 minutes to locate a parking place. The fee for parking was not easy to see in the rain and I missed it until time to leave.

Bringing airships to life
Fascinating museum. Get the app-based audio guide when you arrive. Lots of stories about the people involved in these mega-beasts of the air, from the early inventors to passengers in the heydays, as well as explanations of airships' development and journeys. Scale models allow you to compare the size of, say, the Hindenberg to that of a modern jet aircraft - and it's quite a shock!
