Magical Family Time with the Unicorn at the State Museum Schwerin
On July 19, 2026, the State Museum Schwerin invites families to a guided tour that connects art, imagination, and shared discovery. Children and adults encounter the unicorn by Maerten de Vos and experience a tour that sparks curiosity, encourages conversation, and provides real family time. The official time is announced for 2:00 PM. ([schwerin.de](https://www.schwerin.de/kultur-tourismus/event/familienfuehrung-wuensche-an-das-einhorn/))
An Artwork that Provokes Questions
The unicorn appears here not as a sweet fantasy creature, but as a shy, powerful, and wild figure. That is exactly what makes the tour so exciting for families: children can discover differences between historical image worlds and today’s unicorn ideas and playfully sharpen their view for art. The event combines wonder, conversation, and learning experiences in a child-friendly way. ([schwerin.de](https://www.schwerin.de/kultur-tourismus/event/familienfuehrung-wuensche-an-das-einhorn/))
Creative Space for Small Ideas
Afterwards, according to the event description, it continues in the creative space Atelier. Together, an artwork will be created, a personal power animal or a personal wish to the unicorn. For families, this means: not just listening, but engaging, trying out and conversing with each other. Such participatory moments promote perception, expression, and creativity.
