Karrasburg is a significant historical site in Coswig, a city located northwest of Dresden in the Saxon district of Meißen. This medieval water castle is not just a historical monument but also houses the city museum. The museum offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich history of the region, making it a worthwhile destination for tourists interested in history and culture.

Inauguration and Location of the Karrasburg Museum

The Karrasburg museum was inaugurated as the new city museum of Coswig in October 1996. Following the construction of the new Coswig town hall, the museum was allocated the upper floor of the Karrasburg. This location provides a unique setting for the museum's exhibits, adding to the overall visitor experience.

Renovation and Expansion of the Karrasburg Museum

In December 2000, the Karrasburg museum was reopened after undergoing a renovation. The museum now features an expanded permanent exhibition spread across two floors. This allows for a more comprehensive display of the region's history and culture, enhancing the educational value for visitors.
