The north-east of Bavaria is, as it has been for more than 100 years, the most important porcelain region in Germany and even Europe. In the centre is the Porzellanikon, a state museum with two locations in Selb and Hohenberg a. d. Eger with an exhibition area of 10,000 m\u00b2. It presents the traditions of German porcelain since the foundation of the Meissener Manufaktur, illustrates the successes on the world market that have continued to this day, and presents the design developments of yesterday, today and tomorrow.<\/span><\/p>\n
