The Imperial Museum Weißenburg is the evidence of the history of the city that enjoyed independence for five hundred years. Yes, Weißenburg lived by its own laws, even though the emperor formally ruled it. You will learn about this in the Imperial Museum. The museum has an interesting and extensive collection. There are sections of music, science, commerce, and many others, without which the city life would be incomplete.
A separate part of the exhibition is devoted to the traditions of the region, its crafts and trades. The codes of practice of the most famous guilds are described. The exhibition includes the Diploma on granting Weißenburg its own coat of arms on behalf of the Emperor. There are also portraits of the city’s famous people. A pretty serious research material is compiled about the Germans, who at various times were expelled from Central and Eastern Europe and found refuge in Weißenburg.
