Museum "Fürstenfeldbruck"

Description

The Museum Fürstenfeldbruck is located in the rooms of the former monastery brewery in the Cistercian monastery Fürstenfeld . The main focus of the collection is the history and art of the Fürstenfeld monastery and its relationship to the Wittelsbach sovereigns. A second department deals with regional culture and history and the life of the citizens of Bruck around 1900, the third department with the archaeological finds of the region.

The museum is located in the attractive monastery area with culinary offers and wonderful walks along the Amper river - and all this is fully accessible!
