There is a lot to see in the World of Leica in the Leitz Park Wetzlar. You should plan a good two hours for a visit to the interactive Ernst Leitz Museum and exhibition. You can also spend a good two hours in the headquarters with a view of production and various exhibitions. With a stop at Café Leitz and a walk through the Leitz Park Forest, you can also spend half a day with us.

All tours through the Leitz-Park and the World of Leica are generally wheelchair accessible. However, due to daily restrictions, we kindly ask for information at the time of reservation, whether you are an individual or a group, if you, for example, are using a wheelchair.

Not wheelchair accessible are the tour from the Leitz-Park to the old town and the nature trail.

Small bags and backpacks can be taken along without any issues. There are no restrictions regarding this for the tour from the Leitz-Park to the old town.

Tours can be canceled free of charge up to 48 hours before the start of the tour. The cancellation must be made in writing via email. Please understand that tours that have already been paid for cannot be refunded.

Leica AG reserves the right to impose restrictions or cancellations on already booked tours for operational reasons. In this case, the price of your tour will, of course, be refunded.

You can purchase tickets for the museum on-site and without reservation. If you wish to join a tour spontaneously, you can also buy a ticket on-site. However, this is only possible if there are still available seats.

The duration of the tours varies. The tour through the World of Leica lasts approximately 60 minutes, and a nature trail tour lasts approximately 90 minutes.

As the tour from the Leitz-Park to the old town is self-guided, the duration depends entirely on you. However, please allow at least 40 minutes, as the walking distance is 4.5 kilometers.

Please understand that due to the many tours offered, it is not possible to spontaneously postpone a tour. If a group is late, the tour duration will be shortened accordingly. If you are more than 20 minutes late, we reserve the right to cancel the tour at your expense. For individual guests of a group tour, it is unfortunately not possible for us to wait for you with the whole group or to start the tour later.

Our tours are offered as standard in German and English. If interested, there is also the possibility to take the tour in French.

Our guided tours always start at the meeting point in front of the museum/headquarters. Please ensure that you and your group are at the meeting point at least 5 minutes before the tour starts so that the tour can start on time.
