The Nonseum is a nonsense museum in Herrnbaumgarten, Lower Austria.
Since 1994, the Nonseum has been presenting around 250 "inventions that we don't need either" in an exhibition building built in the style of a Weinviertel village barn; this is the definition of the nonseum. As early as 1984 and 1985, the later Nonseums team held nationally acclaimed nonsense inventor fairs. The word "nonseum" is a portmanteau of "nonsense" and "museum".
The institution, which also includes an open-air area and a museum cinema, goes back to an idea of the Association for the Exploitation of Surplus Thoughts , founded in 1991, which has set itself the goal of wresting a smile from even the last citizen of the earth. As a result, objects such as the sheep counting machine or the black light bulb can be seen in the Nonseum, but also inventions such as the parking meter, which, equipped with a real clockwork, constantly updates the display of the arrival time of the parked car – an invention that has already been used by road users to avoid speeding tickets , but is of course not legal.
Since the year 2000, as part of the project "crazy village of Herrnbaumgarten" (colloquially of displaced in the meaning of skilfully looking at the world from a different point of view), more and more nonseum objects have been positioned in the public space of the municipality, such as the "Last Resting Place for the Wackelstein", the "Monument to the Living" or the "Single Sock Memorial". Accommodation establishments and gastronomy will also be gradually integrated into the project.
With Otto Grünmandl , the nonsense inventory was filmed. The film is shown in the museum on an ongoing basis.
