Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Museum

The Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Museum is housed in a former railway station building in Pöcking and displays collections about Empress Elisabeth of Austria from the 19th century. The building contains paintings, photographs, and personal objects that document different aspects of her life.

The Empress spent her childhood and youth in the region beside Lake Starnberg, and this place held personal meaning for her. The museum was founded in the 1990s to preserve these historical connections.

The place offers visitors a personal connection to Empress Elisabeth through her ties to this region beside Lake Starnberg. The collection reveals how meaningful her family and the time spent at this shore were to her life.

The place is best visited on weekends and public holidays from May through October, when the exhibitions are open to visitors. Groups can also arrange special visits at other times to view the collection.

The place uses creative learning methods such as creating audio plays and conducting interviews to engage young visitors in the story. These interactive activities help children develop a deeper connection to the person and her life.
