Experience 800 years of history in a unique architectural setting.

With audiovisual projections, audio tracks and vivid presentations, the exhibitions in the Werdenberg Museums reflect the history of the rulers at the castle and the ordinary people in the small town. Early endowed with market rights and town walls, Werdenberg is one of the few remaining urban medieval timber-built settlements in Europe and is listed as a site of national importance in Switzerland's inventory of sites worthy of protection. Behind the castle walls, the rise and fall of the counts and bailiffs, the everyday life of knights and the later bourgeois owners are told. The Schlangenhaus Museum in Städtli is dedicated to the lives of the Werdenberg population. During the international Schlossmediale festival, the castle becomes the focus of music and art every year. Various guided tours and special events are also offered from April to October.
