Silesian Museum in Görlitz (Schönhof)

The Silesian Museum in Görlitz is housed in the historic Schönhof, one of the oldest Renaissance buildings in Germany. It offers you a fascinating insight into 900 years of Silesian history. A visit is definitely worth it.

The Silesian Museum is located in the Renaissance house Schönhof and in 3 connected houses. The Schönhof is the oldest Renaissance building in Görlitz, built in 1526 over the remains of the previous building that was destroyed in the city fire in 1525. The architect was Wendel Roskopf, the Elder. Inside, a central hall extends over all floors and is a typical Görlitz hall house. Due to its location, it was, like the previous building, a princely guest house. If you would like to find out more about the history, you can find out more here:
