Visit the Kaysersberg Historical Museum
The Kaysersberg Historical Museum welcomes you to the heart of one of the most beautiful villages in Alsace.
Housed in a former Renaissance residence, it reveals the treasures of this ancient imperial town.
It offers an opportunity to discover centuries of history, religious art, and Alsatian traditions.
Located in an extraordinary 16th-century Renaissance building, the museum welcomes you to the historic center of Kaysersberg.
It occupies the first floor of a patrician house built in 1521.
At the time, the residence belonged to a wealthy owner of silver mines in Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines. Its architecture bears witness to the town’s prosperity during the Renaissance.
Since 1972, the site has housed collections that trace local history from the Neolithic era through the Roman period.
The Kaysersberg Historical Museum contains several remarkable pieces, including a rare "opening" Virgin (a triptych-style statue of the Virgin Mary) dating back to 1380.
You can also admire a 15th-century "Palm Sunday Christ" (a figure of Christ on a donkey), religious sculptures, and various archaeological finds such as Neolithic axes, antique weapons, fireplace backplates, and traditional artifacts.
It is a chance to learn more about the daily lives of the town’s inhabitants throughout the ages.
