Egg Museum

Egg Museum is a local history museum in a protected historic building that holds around 3000 objects from the region. The collection includes traditional garments, farming tools, ceramics, and other everyday items from the Bregenzerwald area.

It was founded in 1904 as the first local history museum in Vorarlberg and marked an early effort to preserve regional history. After major renovations, it reopened in 1988.

The exhibition rooms display traditional garments and regional crafts from the Bregenzerwald area. They show how people in this region dressed and made things for their daily lives.

The museum has limited opening hours and is best visited early in the weekend. Guided tours can be arranged in advance to enhance your visit.

It preserves exhibits about the Battle of Rote Egg from the Thirty Years' War and highlights the role of women who defended the region. This lesser-known story reveals the importance of women in local military history.
