Cabinet of humor by the Emden-born comedian OTTO










Otto, Germany's most famous comedian, the most successful comedian south of the Waterkant, the city's greatest son, has his own house dedicated to him in Emden.
It's a rarity: a museum where you can laugh!
Millions of people have seen Otto on stage, on television or in the cinema. They have read his books and listened to his records or CDs. Or fallen in love with his Ottifanten. In the Otto Huus, all this and much more can be admired once again.
The Otto cinema shows sketches from his stage shows, excerpts from TV programs and Otto's films - from "Otto the Movie", the first, to the cinema hit, the "7 Dwarfs".
