Treasures to Admire: Participants in the Collector's Showcases 2025

July 31, 2025

The collector's showcases at the Munich Show are among the special highlights for mineral lovers and are a popular meeting place in Hall A5.

Every year, passionate collectors design their showcases with great care around a theme of their own choosing and provide fascinating insights into their personal treasures. In doing so, they not only share extraordinary exhibits, but also the enthusiasm with which their collections were created.

This special exhibition offers visitors the opportunity to discover rare and impressive minerals, exchange ideas with like-minded people, and make valuable contacts within the collector scene. The variety of themes and the commitment of the exhibitors make this area a real meeting place.

This year, there will once again be a public vote to select and award the most beautiful display cases. Visitors can cast their votes on site from Thursday to Saturday evening to support their personal favorites.

Be inspired by the passion and diversity in each individual display case and take the opportunity to contribute to the recognition of the most impressive presentations with your vote.
