---

Lauffener Burgmuseum is a local history museum located in the historic Grafenburg (Counts’ Castle) on an island in the Neckar River in Lauffen am Neckar, Baden-Württemberg. The museum is housed in a remarkably well-preserved 11th-century residential tower that is considered one of the only surviving examples of its kind from the Salian era in Germany. The museum explores the history of the Counts of Lauffen, the medieval castle, and everyday life in the Middle Ages. Through exhibits and interactive displays, visitors can learn about how people lived, worked, dressed, and defended themselves centuries ago. Today, the Burgmuseum is one of Lauffen’s most important cultural attractions. Set within the historic castle complex that now also serves as the town hall, it offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience the region’s medieval heritage while enjoying views of the Neckar River.
