Keltenwelt am Glauberg

Keltenwelt am Glauberg is an archaeological museum housed in a distinctive cubic steel structure situated within a large Celtic excavation park. The building displays original artifacts from ancient Celtic graves and burial mounds, offering an overview of how these people lived and honored their dead.

The site served as a burial ground for Celtic communities around 2400 years ago, with princes and warriors laid to rest alongside valuable grave goods. The museum itself opened in 2011 to make these discoveries accessible and tell the region's archaeological story.

The central exhibition displays a stone figure of a Celtic prince discovered on the grounds, reflecting the spiritual importance of burial places in Celtic society. Visitors can see how the craftsmanship of such statues connected the living to their honored dead.

The park is open year-round and offers trails to explore the excavation sites and outdoor grounds, especially pleasant during warmer months. The modern museum building is easy to locate and has facilities to make your visit comfortable.

Three Celtic warriors were buried here with remarkably rich grave goods, including weapons, jewelry, and valuable objects that paint a picture of the community's wealth. These discoveries reveal the craftsmanship and prosperity of the Celtic elite during that period.
