Museum in the Castle Wolfach
Wolfach, Germany, Germany
Museum in the Castle Wolfach, housed in the north wing of Fürstenberg Castle in Wolfach, Germany, is one of the region's oldest museums, opened in 1937 to showcase Black Forest local history and the vital Kinzig River rafting tradition central to the town's economy for centuries. Located in the restored former castle kitchen, it features detailed exhibits on lumbering, raft construction, and the grueling journeys of raftsmen—who floated timber to markets until railways ended the practice around a century ago—complete with a 1560 model of Wolfach's fortified medieval town, period rooms, films, and UNESCO-recognized cultural heritage displays. The adjacent castle chapel adds spiritual history with its 14th-century Virgin Mary image and Baroque art, while the site hosts cultural events amid Wolfach's preserved historic core in the Black Forest.
