A LITTLE ABOUT THE SONNEBERG MUSEUM.
The Sonneberg Museum is one of the oldest toy museums in the world. In the possession of the museum there are some old Teddy Bears made by Max Hermann, who gave these bears to the museum in the 1920’s and 1930’s.
The idea of Max Hermann was to give Teddy Bears to the museum for protection, so that they will be preserved for prosperity.
In 1994 Ulla Hermann decided to design a special bear for the Sonneberg Toy Museum every year and to give always the number 001 of each model to the museum. This bear is handed over to the president of the museum every December for the previous year.

The common sign of all of these Sonneberg museum bears is the embroidered representation of the “Sonneberg Little Horseman” as the symbol of the old tradition of Sonneberg Toys.
Sonneberg is a town in Thuringia , Germany , capital of the district Sonneberg .
