Museum Steinheim Castle

Museum Steinheim Castle is a regional heritage museum housed in a historic castle building located on a hillside above the Main River area. The rooms display objects and exhibitions from different periods of local life, ranging from craftspeople to everyday items of past residents.

The castle was built and expanded over several centuries, bringing together different architectural styles within its walls. It was opened as a museum in 1986 and has served since then as a place to preserve the region's history.

The museum's collection contains exhibits that document the development of regional craftsmanship, daily life patterns, and social changes throughout different periods.

The museum is generally open on weekends and can be visited when you have time for a leisurely walk through the rooms. Wear sturdy shoes since the grounds are hilly and there are stairs inside the building.

The building shows clearly on its walls and floors the different construction phases from various time periods. If you look carefully, you can see which parts were added later and which belonged to the original structure.
