Westpreußisches Landesmuseum

The Westpreussisches Landesmuseum is a regional museum in Warendorf that displays collections of documents and objects related to West Prussian history. It offers permanent exhibitions and temporary displays covering life, culture, and the development of this region.

The museum was founded in 1975, initially operating in Munster before moving to Warendorf in 2012. This relocation allowed the institution to present its collection from a central location.

The museum displays exhibitions that reflect the blend of German, Polish, and Kashubian cultures in the Lower Vistula region. Visitors encounter this cultural connection through the objects and spaces on view.

The museum is easy to reach and offers wheelchair accessibility for all visitors. It helps to check opening times and current exhibitions beforehand to get the most from your visit.

The museum has maintained a partner exhibition in Krokowa near Gdansk, Poland since 1999, developed through collaboration with Polish cultural institutions. This connection shows the museum's cross-border commitment to preserving this shared history.
