Phone box from Oerlenbach

FERNSPRECHHÄUSCHEN AUS OERLENBACH / BAMBERG

When was the last time you made a phone call from a telephone box? Probably you don’t remember, which is why it is little surprising that phone boxes are more likely to be found in a museum today than anywhere else. While Great Britain is generally associated with red telephone boxes, people in Germany usually think of a bright yellow colour. Since 2019 these yellow phone boxes have no longer officially been in service, and with the rise of mobile phones even the successor model coloured in magenta and grey is becoming increasingly rare.

Originally located in Bamberg, this telephone box has already had an interesting history. After the introduction of the euro it was transferred to the federal police education and training centre in Oerlenbach, where it was used to simulate a crime scene at a platform during situational trainings.

Pick up the receiver and dial a number to listen to the stories the phone box can tell you. Although they are in German you may well guess what they are about, from hoax calls to confessions of love.
