Stuhlmuseum Burg Beverungen

Stuhlmuseum Burg Beverungen is a medieval castle near the Weser River that contains preserved residential towers and fortified walls. The building houses a specialized furniture collection, along with a restaurant and a knight's hall available for events.

The museum displays chairs from different periods and styles that reflect the region's craftsmanship heritage. Visitors can see how designs and manufacturing techniques evolved over time.

The castle is easily accessible and offers restaurant areas alongside the museum for visitors to relax. The knight's hall can be used for events, and the ground floor restaurant serves regional products and wines.

The castle houses Germany's only museum entirely dedicated to the history of furniture manufacturing. This specialized collection documents a craft that shaped the economic development of this region across generations.
