So many nutcrackers! If you are a fan of them, then this is the place for you. You really could spend quite a long time here because there is lots to learn and read about above and beyond just looking at all the different nutcrackers.

For a small fee of only five dollars you get to look at literally thousands of nutcrackers. It's quite a collection! The lady who helped us at the front desk was lovely and they have a cute little gift shop if you want a nutcracker to take home.

My kids were a little skeptical going in but really enjoyed it. Ages 15 to 9 all enjoyed. Probably about 75 min to explore.
Enter the Nutcracker Museum and you are amazed at the vast amount of nutcrackers being shown! Every where you look you will see NUTCRACKERS...different styles of wooden toy soldier nutcrackers, the name used for the colorful German figures of Steinbach, Ulbricht, Erzgebirge and many other makers. We have fun "Nutcracker Hunts" for grownups and for kids. A 17-minute informational video plays continually and you'll want to browse through the Nutcracker Lady Gift Shop. In April 2022, the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum was inducted into the Guinness World Book of Records with 9,103 nutting devices on display in the museum.
