Stadtmuseum Siegburg, History museum in Siegburg, Germany
Stadtmuseum Siegburg is a history museum in the German town of Siegburg with four exhibition levels displaying archaeological finds, fossils, and historical objects from the region. The collections trace the area's development from prehistoric times through to the present day.
The museum was established in 1903 when Mayor Carl Plum founded an association to gather and preserve historical objects from the region. This collecting effort laid the foundation for the extensive collection visible today.
The collection highlights pottery that made Siegburg famous across Europe for centuries, and visitors can see the craftsmanship that shaped the town's identity. These ceramics reveal how local artisans contributed to the region's reputation far beyond its borders.
The museum is open on most weekdays and weekends with full wheelchair accessibility throughout the building. The location in the town center makes it easy to reach and explore.
Since 2014, the museum shares a building with the town library in what was once a Latin school. This connection creates a shared space for history and knowledge in the heart of the city.
