ENTDECKE DAS MÄUSEHAUS
The Mouse Mansion is a world in itself, with more than one hundred mouse sized rooms full of houses, shops, streets and outside spaces. Every room has its own inhabitant, with a history, a personality and family ties. Tales of everyday life in The Mouse Mansion teach important lessons on craftmanship, inclusivity and community.

Karinas vier Kinder sind die treibende Kraft hinter dieser Marke, jeder mit einer eigenen Rolle im Familienunternehmen.
