Sorbian Museum, Cultural heritage museum in Bautzen, Germany.

The Sorbian Museum contains 35,000 inventoried objects across three floors, displaying material culture, textiles, costumes, literature, and visual arts from the region.

Founded in 1904 by the Maćica Serbska scientific society, the museum began with an archaeology department and expanded its collections through the efforts of Dr. Ernst Mucke.

The museum preserves the traditions of the Sorbian people through exhibits of traditional costumes, everyday objects, and documentation of their language and customs.

Located in the Salzhaus building of Ortenburg castle, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM with wheelchair accessibility.
