Werdenfels Museum Garmisch Partenkirchen

Helpful facts

The Werdenfels Museum shows typical and surprising things, cultural history, art and traditions of the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen in order to preserve the knowledge of the land and its people. It is one of the most important regional cultural history museums in Bavaria.

The area around Garmisch has been settled and traversed by people for around 6000 years. It is an important connection between north and south, and the Roman military road Via Raetia developed from early historical paths through Garmisch and on through the Ammertal. There was also a lot of long-distance trade here in the Middle Ages, allowing trade and art to flourish.

The exhibition focuses on the lives of people in the region in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.
