Wandering through the Heimathaus: Experience Traunstein's history in sensory spaces

On Saturday, December 20, 2025, the City Museum Heimathaus Traunstein will open its historic doors from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Between Brothausturm and Zieglerwirtshaus, an art experience unfolds that unites local history, sacred art, and toy worlds in a harmonious curation – accompanied by a brochure and interactive offerings for children.

Architecture with Aura: Brothausturm and Zieglerwirtshaus

The atmosphere of the exhibition lives from the Inn-Salzach architecture: rhythmic arcades, delicately proportioned bay windows, protective fire walls. This architectural dramaturgy creates an impressive spatial effect and presents the artworks as if on a historical stage.

Collecting, organizing, telling: City history as an aesthetic experience

Paintings, fragments of sculptures, sacred objects, and everyday items from crafts, trade, and salt production condense into a vibrant narrative. The colors of aging woods, cool stone, and matte metal of the tools: materials speak – and the curation allows them to resonate dialogically.

Toys and city model: Learning with eyes, hands, and heart

The children's world showcases trains, airplanes, and mechanical wonders; some exhibits can be activated. A detailed city model transports visitors to Traunstein in the late 19th century and sharpens the view for urban structures, perspectives, and scales.

Art historical contexts: From Baroque to civic culture

Portraits between Baroque and Biedermeier, popular piety, and bourgeois culture tell of representation and memory. The exhibition sharpens concepts such as epoch, iconography, and material iconology, vividly linking them with regional cultural history.

Museum education with profile

An accompanying brochure structures the artwork observation, and interactive stations deepen the aesthetic experience. For curious adults as well as families, a low-threshold approach to art, history, and curation is created.

Conclusion: For those looking to experience a compact, carefully curated panorama of city history, art, and toys, the Heimathaus provides an intimate stage for objects. Visit the exhibition, enjoy quiet contemplation, and expand your view of Traunstein – the full effect unfolds on-site.
