Municipal museum

The Municipal Museum of Saverne is housed in Rohan Castle and spread across multiple floors with sections devoted to art, history, and archaeology. The collections span different periods and present various aspects of the region's past through painting, objects, and historical records.

The museum was founded in 1858 as a repository for local heritage and collections. It gained official recognition as a cultural institution, solidifying its role in preserving the region's past.

The Louise Weiss collection displays ethnographic objects and paintings that document the early stages of European integration. Visitors can see how art and cultural artifacts from this period tell stories of international cooperation.

The museum is accessed through Rohan Castle, which sits in the town center and is easy to reach on foot. Wear comfortable shoes since climbing stairs between the different exhibition floors is necessary to see all sections.

The collections include a significant number of stone artifacts from Roman times, including funerary and votive stelae. These objects are displayed in the vaulted cellars of the castle and offer a rare window into the ancient people who lived in the region.
