By appointment
The museum shows objects of cultural and historical value. Linen production is clearly shown. Equipment and tools of the village handicraft can be seen. A collection of agricultural implements and machines are reminiscent of rural life in the past. Traditional costumes from the region, household items, historical washing machines and a toy collection enrich the exhibition. Memorabilia from the expellees from Porstendorf, who found a new home in Staufenberg in 1946, are also on display in the museum. A collection of historical photographic equipment, especially from the Leitz company (Leica), enriches the inventory. The Staufenberg local history museum is a good starting point for the literary hiking trail “You should look for the paths yourself! Peter Kurzeck's paths in and around Staufenberg" (https://peter-kurzecks-wege.de/), which leads to locations in the work of the writer Peter Kurzeck and at the same time presents them from the perspective of contemporary witnesses.
