This is German-language content, but the virtual tour of the museum is a feast for the eyes in any language:
There’s a PDP-themed online event next week:
Here’s the main page for the museum:
The museum also got a mention in this previous thread:
19 bit minicomputing - the Mincal 523 from Dietz
Edit: another clip from inside the museum:
via a thread on Mastodon, which I might be lucky to find again…
… ah, here

Ah, I can see a LGP-30 in the video thumbnai!
(They do have one, which is pretty well documented, compare http://computermuseum.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/dev_en/lgp30/lgp30.html )
Edit: The virtual tour actually starts with a demo of this LGP-30, which is the oldest running computer in Germany!
Past streams are available at the YouTube channel of the museum:

That virtual tour was great, and so easy to understand. I was surprised when the video started, it was like hearing my native language or English - must be his way of speaking. Thanks for posting that!
Edit: I see others commenting about his easy-to-follow speech in that Mastodon thread as well
