The local museum is located in the middle of Thalbürgel, opposite the famous monastery church. Since September 1992, it has been under construction with the help of the local population on an area of 550 square meters in the old rent store of the former Benedictine monastery of Bürgel.

The rent store, built around 1350, is the last completely preserved commercial building of the monastery. The equipment is demonstrated to guests - everything can be seen in action. Anyone who wants to can even try out the tasting corner and the museum workshop themselves.

It is thanks to some hardworking people from this region that the museum has been built since 1992 to preserve the historical heritage of our region. In the former barn of the Thalbürgel monastery complex, built in 1350, the aim is to collect and preserve everything that relates to daily life from earlier times. The aim is to document and convey the life and work of past generations in the country and in our region and to preserve it for the future. (Source: website Zinsspeicher)

"The Zinsspeicher (Zinc Storehouse) is the last remaining outbuilding of the former monastery complex.

Until 1945, it was used as a barn and stable for the Thalbürgel estate. After 1945, it housed a machine and tractor station (MTS), a grain and electrical storage facility, and served as a school workshop.

In 1992, our museum was established on the upper floors of the building."
