Activities

Embark on a journey through the history of Marktoberdorf. Starting with a Roman settlement and the Alemannic burial ground, you’ll travel through the early modern period under the Electors to the industrialization of the 20th century.  

The Riesengebirgsmuseum of Marktoberdorf memorizes a lost homeland. Go along with Rübezahl, familiar spirit of the Giant Mountains to discover the treasures and traditions of his home country.

An impressive number of works by the artist Paul Röder (1897–1962), as well as his collection of African, Asian, and Oceanic ritual objects, can be viewed at the Martinsheim.

The Paul Röder Collection is temporarily closed due to inventory work.

The homeland museum at the Hartmannhaus with its lovingly created farming gardens awakes a piece of nostalgia and presents uncountable antiquities from the rural past of Marktoberdorf.

Guided tours with Rübezahl to the Giant Mountains, doing the laundry like 100 years ago or calligraphies with Clemens Wenzeslaus. There are services and offers for every age group at those extracurricular museums.

The gallery of artists and museum of contemporary art in Marktoberdorf is located in a unique and modern exhibition center with clear and cubic brick architecture.

The roman friends association was founded to protect the archaeological excavation site, a magnificent cultural heritage in Kohlhunden, next to Marktoberdorf and make it accessible for the open public.
