The local history museum of the city of Marsberg in the former school in Obermarsberg is part of the Hochsauerlandkreis museum landscape , the sponsor of the voluntary museum is the city of Marsberg .

The opening year of the local history museum cannot be precisely determined. In the 1930s, Provost Ludwig Hagemann (historian) began collecting for a local history museum, which he then founded in 1935. It remains unclear whether this year of foundation is synonymous with the opening year.

The present museum and library building was built in 1910, its facade has been a listed building since 1987.
