The former women's convent in Wasungen is a magnificent building with half-timbered elements.

One of the most beautiful buildings in the city, with elaborately designed woodwork, a Renaissance portal and ornate stucco ceilings inside. Today it is a city museum, city archive, Thuringian Carnival Museum and tourist information (flyer: "Historical city tour" Wasungen)

The women's monastery, which is worth seeing, was built in 1596 and served primarily as a religious hostel for impoverished noblewomen. The women's monastery actually existed until 1931, was then converted to residential purposes and is now partly a museum.

The tourist information office is on the ground floor. The city museum is on the first floor and is quite small. It is a typical provincial museum with very general information on crafts and history. The stucco ceilings from the time of the women's monastery are worth seeing. The visit should take 30 minutes.
