From 12 July to 1 November 2024: Joint exhibition as part of the Bavaria-wide Network of Antiquity!

The network emerged in 2019 from the "Museums & Tourism" project of the State Office for Non-State Museums in Bavaria in cooperation with Bayern Tourismus Marketing GmbH. It is one of ten selected pilot museum networks. It was founded with the aim of jointly drawing attention to archaeology in Bavaria. "In the footsteps of the Romans, Celts, Greeks and Etruscans" is the overarching motto of the seven institutions in Augsburg, Aschaffenburg, Kempten, Manching, Munich and Weissenburg. The aim is to whet the appetite of locals and tourists alike for ancient history and archaeological remains in Bavaria.

Romans, Celts, Greeks and Etruscans have left many traces in Bavaria. Coins, painted clay vessels, gold jewellery, marble sculptures, friezes and even ships tell exciting stories from Bavaria's ancient past. The aim is also to make clear which current references can and must be made with regard to the ancient past. In times of war in Ukraine and the dramatic escalation of the Middle East conflict, democracy is being put to the test, a political achievement that we owe to the ancient Greeks. Only through a strong network consisting of smaller and larger institutions can common themes be successfully interlinked and presented across institutions and regions.

In the museum shop we offer a selected range of textiles, literature, jewellery, porcelain, children's toys and souvenirs. Of course, Karl Valentin should not be missing from the assortment. He was a regular visitor to the castle at the end of the Second World War. A selection of books commemorates him. Our compact castle guide is also available. Grünwald castle honey is also available at the ticket office.

In summer, the castle courtyard invites you to linger over coffee, cake and drinks.

Several bee colonies have been living and working at the castle since 2017, meaning that the castle's own honey is available in the museum shop. Throughout spring and summer, our busy bees take care of pollinating the flowers in Grünwald's gardens and forests. Once a year, our beekeeper gives interested castle visitors an insight into his work.
