Teddy Bear Museums Around the World!
Teddy Bears have become one of the most famous nursery toys (and toys for all ages), since they first debuted in 1902. Now over 100 years old, teddy bears continue to thrive as a toy, as a collectible and as a 20th century icon throughout the world. Teddy bears touch all ages, all walks of life and all countries!
Many countries play host to an amazing array of teddy bear memorabilia and collections, as evidenced by the numerous museums we've identified below. Our list is not exhaustive so please email us at: Huggable Teddy Bears should you know of a teddy bear museum we may have missed.
