Schlossmuseum Braunschweig — Attraction in Brunswick

Truly lovely place and well worth a visit for people interested in history. Located in the Schloss at the left hand side, it’s free to enter until the end of September and also a free audioguide. They ask if you have your own earphones but if not they can give you some.

The museum itself is not that big, only a few rooms. Lots of information and the audioguide is very informative.

There are about three or so recreated rooms with original furniture and artwork which are very pretty, culminating in the magnificent throne room. The throne room is a beautiful, though smaller recreation of the west original, but the throne itself is original. Fascinating to learn about the history and detail of the furniture and artwork, this is where the audioguide comes in handy.

As some other reviews have mentioned, the staff inside are very friendly and helpful. The lovely lady at the front desk explained exactly how to move through the museum and even pointed me in the direction of the Quadriga. Truly professional good at their job, they are an asset to the museum and make visitors feel...

Limited viewing to four rooms, furnished in style. The entire building was demolished after WW II and rebuilt. Some history of the original building and grounds as they were in the early 18th century. Another section is dedicated to the last duchess that lived there before the war: Princess Louise Victoria daughter of Wilhelm II is highlighted in interviews with people...

The Museum was good, but the behavior of the woman behind the desk near of door of Museum, was not good and that was very weak. I came from England for tour to Germany but, unfortunately it was a bad memorie for me. I am so sorry , but it's...
