Just a few steps away from the marketplace stands a striking, narrow-framed half-timbered house that houses a small, worthwhile local museum. The house was built in 1732. The two-story building, with a slightly protruding upper floor, has a trapezoidal layout with a width of two meters facing the marketplace. In 1979, the city of Kirchberg acquired the property and subsequently renovated it as a home museum. The building underwent a complete renovation in 2016/17.
The reopening of the museum took place in 2018. The lower area with an open foyer is intended for temporary exhibitions and events, while a permanent exhibition on the history of the town is located on the first floor. The museum impresses with clear structures and a tidy design. Admission is free.
