In 1972, the Amberg-Sulzbach district founded the supra-regional Mining and Industry Museum in Theuern. Its primary mission is to research, document, and present the mining and industrial history of the entire eastern Bavarian region.

The Mining and Industry Museum is housed in the Hammerherrenschloss (Hammer Lord's Castle), built in 1781. In addition, regionally typical industrial monuments were relocated to Theuern: an ironworks, a glass grinding and polishing works (which has also housed the Eastern Bavarian Electricity Museum since 1996), and a winding tower with an engine house.
