Bread culture

We all know that Germany has the greatest bread in the world, but Ulm takes it one step further by offering the Museum of Bread Culture. Since we have our museum passes which we got visiting the Ulmer Museum a few weeks ago on another bad weather Sunday, we went to the bread museum today. It's a pleasant place, not too big, but with what seemed like the largest collection of bread-themed art around. There were even some well-known artists represented, among them Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Picasso, or Dali. Unfortunately, they didn't have the plush pretzels that appeared in various places in the museum available in the gift shop. A missed marketing opportunity.
