Included free with the Turbopass Munich Pass. Discounted (not free) with the Turbopass Munich Card.

Turbopass Munich Pass

Included. Confirmed individually via Turbopass's own dedicated Verkehrszentrum attraction page ('Included in the Munich City Pass').

Turbopass Munich Card

Discounted. €1 discount off the standard ticket. EUR 1 off, per Turbopass's citation of Turbopass Munich Card terms. That same source cites the 'regular price' as EUR 9, which conflicts with the attraction's own official EUR 8 price (see deutsches-museum-verkehrszentrum record) — the discount amount itself is not affected by which base price is correct.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does one ticket cover the main Deutsches Museum site or Flugwerft Schleissheim too?
No. The Verkehrszentrum has its own separate day ticket, independently priced from both the main site and Flugwerft Schleissheim. Only the Annual Pass (€50 adult / €25 reduced) covers all three Deutsches Museum locations.
Are children free at the Verkehrszentrum?
Children under 6 are free. Ages 6-17 qualify for the reduced ticket (€6.00) rather than a separate child price.
Why do some other sources list a lower price?
Prices increased on 28 January 2026 (from €8/€5 to €9/€6), per the museum's own announcement, and a family ticket was newly introduced at €19. A third-party source quoting the older €8 figure is simply out of date.
Do I need to book in advance?
Online advance purchase is recommended, especially in high season, but it is not a strict requirement — walk-up admission remains possible.
Which Munich pass includes the Verkehrszentrum?
The Turbopass Munich Pass includes it for free. The Turbopass Munich Card only discounts it (€1.00 off the adult ticket) rather than including it.
