Museum of Koblenz, Regional history museum in Koblenz, Germany

The Museum of Koblenz is the state museum of Rhineland-Palatinate, housed in four exhibition buildings on the Ehrenbreitstein fortress above Koblenz. Its collections cover photography, archaeology, winegrowing and technical cultural history, with permanent displays in the House of Archaeology, the House of Photography in the Turm Ungenannt, and the House of Enjoyment in the Lange Linie.

Founded in 1956 as the Staatliche Sammlung für Vorgeschichte und Volkskunde under Josef Röder, it was housed in the Landbastion of Ehrenbreitstein fortress. Its first exhibition showed the technology of winegrowing, with machines and tools from wine and mining, river fishing and basalt and pumice extraction. In 1972 it became a state museum; from 1975 Ulrich Löber recast it around technology as a human cultural achievement, and in 2003 the Haus der Archäologie opened.

The museum's name changed in 1975 to "Landesmuseum Koblenz – Staatliche Sammlung technischer Kulturdenkmäler" when Ulrich Löber put technology at the centre as a human cultural achievement. The Haus des Genusses in the "Langen Linie" houses the permanent exhibition "WeinReich Rheinland-Pfalz" on winegrowing in the state, and the Haus der Fotografie in the "Turm Ungenannt" shows the state collection on the history of photography, begun in 1993.

The galleries are accessible for visitors with reduced mobility, and you can spend one or more hours depending on your interests. Information panels are available in German, and guided tours for school groups can be arranged in advance.

The museum's coin collection includes the Ehrenbreitstein hoard, shown in a 2016/2017 special exhibition. The archaeology house opened in August 2003 and displays finds from the state's archaeology, while the roof holds three historical theme gardens created for the 2011 Federal Garden Show.
