    The Preetz Local History Museum is located in the small town of Preetz in the Plön district of Schleswig-Holstein. It opened in 1993 on the ground floor of a 19th-century, upper-class house. Johanna Brandt was instrumental in its opening and establishment. The building is owned by the town of Preetz. The museum is run by the "Heimatverein Preetz und Umgebung e.V." (Preetz and Surrounding Area Local History Association). The five exhibition rooms showcase Preetz's history from the early days of settlement to the present day.

    In addition to goldsmiths, pewterers, and shoemakers, the pottery trade was of outstanding importance in Preetz in the 17th and 18th centuries.

    Extensive finds from the sea and the ground prove that Preetz played a major role as a manufacturing center for what is known as "Probsteier Keramik." The museum displays an impressive cross-section of this ceramics. At the beginning of the 17th century,
    the craft of gold and silversmiths also flourished. The museum possesses outstanding examples, particularly from masters of the 18th and 19th centuries.
