The Hildburghausen City Museum is a museum facility on the city ​​history of Hildburghausen . The city ​​museum was founded in 1904 and has been part of the "Alte Post" monument in Hildburghausen since 1993 .

Building history

The listed building is a conglomerate of different structures: It consists of the 16th century town house covered with a hipped roof , a tower of the city ​​wall , a half-timbered arcade and various additions .

From 1809 to 1849 the building served as the Thurn und Taxis post office , hence its name "Alte Post".

Between 1989 and 1993 the building was extensively restored.

Since 1993 the collections of the Hildburghausen City Museum have been housed in the building, which has existed since 1904.
