This historic building, which once served as a stronghold in the 15th century, adds a unique historical charm to the museum experience.

Collections and Exhibits

The museum boasts significant collections in geology, botany, and zoology. A highlight of the museum is its collection of fossil amber found in the province, which is of great value due to its biological inclusions from the Cretaceous period. This collection provides a unique glimpse into the ancient past.
