The Stadtmuseum Traiskirchen is a regional museum in the Lower Austrian town of Traiskirchen that has been in existence since 1988 and is mainly based on volunteer work . It is primarily dedicated to the worlds of the first half of the 20th century. It shows objects from viticulture, agriculture, trade and commerce, industry, fire brigade, associations and schools on an area of over 3000 m² in the listed former premises of the Möllersdorf factory of the Vöslauer Kammgarnfabrik . With this size and 35 rooms it is the largest museum of local history in Lower Austria.
Faithfully reproduced shops, including bakery, shoemaker, grocer , carpentry, photographer, hairdresser, tailor, engraver, watchmaker and tobacconist give a vivid impression of the living conditions before the last mid-century.
Other parts of the museum are a radio and phono collection, a classic car show, a collection of police and gendarmerie caps from all over the world. A showroom is dedicated to the Traiskirchen-born scientist, University Professor Otto Vogl . Numerous exhibits are dedicated to the history of the Badner Bahn . The fire brigade museum deals with fire extinguishing from antiquity to the turn of the millennium.
The permanent exhibition Matador Museum with 70 movable models has existed since April 2005 . About 100 years ago Johann Korbuly from Vienna invented this toy for his sons and founded the factory nearby where the matador was industrially manufactured.
A special exhibition was also dedicated to the Anker stone construction kit.
The museum is open on Tuesdays and Sundays.
