Schwabach town museum is located in the former barracks of American troops O’Brien Kaserne. The main part of the exposition is dedicated to goldsmiths and their products – golden wire, foil, and thinnest golden plates for the production of which Schwabach was famous in the Medieval Ages. One section is dedicated to the town history. Thematic exhibition “Time Travel” gives you the possibility to see tin soldiers, railway road model and other retro exhibits.
There are master classes for children (and interested grown-ups) where they can see how to make golden plates. These classes are conducted in a special “golden room”!
