Museum unter der Yburg

Museum unter der Yburg occupies a multi-story Franconian timber-framed building with distinct exhibition areas arranged across its levels and a vaulted cellar below. The spaces are designed to connect different themes and time periods throughout the structure.

The building dates to 1620 when Johann Friedrich Thumb zu Neuburg constructed it during a period of architectural change in the region. This early origin makes it a significant record of local building traditions.

The museum displays works by researcher Karl Mauch and artist Andreas Friedrich Mochel, whose contributions reflect the region's character. These exhibitions show how individuals shaped this place and its community.

Visit is generally possible on Sundays, so plan ahead and check local information for current opening times. The building sits centrally in town and is accessible by local public transport.

The museum preserves a collection of objects related to flax cultivation and processing that document the region's farming heritage. These items show how important this crop was to local economy and everyday life.
