Historisches Museum des Hochstifts Paderborn

Historisches Museum des Hochstifts Paderborn, Local museum in Büren, Germany.

The Historical Museum of the Prince-Bishopric Paderborn is a regional museum housed across multiple sections of Wewelsburg Castle, presenting local history. The rooms contain objects from different periods that together illustrate what life was like in this area.

The museum traces the development of the Prince-Bishopric Paderborn from its earliest times through the end of the 1700s. The displays follow the major transformations that shaped the region and its people across many centuries.

The displays show everyday objects from the region, ranging from crafts to religious items, revealing how people lived and worked in these communities. These items illustrate what mattered to local residents and how their lives changed over the centuries.

The exhibition occupies 29 rooms in the south and east wings and the southeast tower of Wewelsburg Castle: three floors in the wings and four levels in the tower. An elevator makes most of the route barrier-free. The circuit runs from the Stone Age to 1802, so allow time for both wings and the tower.

The museum occupies 29 rooms in the south and east wings and the southeast tower of Wewelsburg Castle, with the tower rising to four levels. Around 90,000 people visit each year. An elevator opens most of the route to visitors with limited mobility.
