Currywurst Museum
The currywurst is the much-celebrated German fast-food snack of grilled pork sausage, served sliced with curried tomato ketchup.
It was originally invented in Berlin in 1949 by a lady called Herta Heuwer, who had got hold of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and curry powder from British soldiers. She made a sauce out of these ingredients and poured it over her sausages, which proved very popular indeed… to the extent that it eventually spawned a museum.
The museum’s website boasts that all senses are stimulated; you will hear sausages sizzling, smell curry and spices and experience being a currywurst seller, among many other interactive exhibits.
