A visit to the museum is worthwhile on rainy days. In addition to the many museums in the cultural city of Frankfurt-Oder, you can during your stay in our Hotel in Frankfurt-Oder also visit numerous museums and cultural places in the area. There is something for every taste, because the selection is large. In addition to well-known sights, there are also some insider tips worth seeing.

The Brecht Weigel House is located in Buckow in Märkische Schweiz and is definitely worth a visit. Since 1977 there has been a memorial for the writer Bertholt Brecht and his wife, the actress Helene Weigel. The artist couple had had a summer residence in the village since 1952. Even after Bertolt Brecht died in 1956, Helene Weigel often and happily invited guests to the summer house. Helene Weigel died in 1971. Today, among other things, furnishings, set models and costumes from the play "Mother Courage and Her Children" are exhibited in the couple's house.

The Scharwenka Kulturforum in Bad Saarow is probably not quite as well known, although an artist also lived here. The listed house belonged to the pianist, composer and music teacher Xaver Scharwenka, who lived from 1850 to 1924. In the years 1910 and 1911 he had the house built with pine wood from America. Today the first musicians' museum in Brandenburg is located here, as well as a Scharwenka archive about his work and that of his brother Philipp. There is also a small gallery in the house where local artists exhibit their works.

One of the most famous sights in the region is probably the Neuzelle monastery, which attracts many visitors from the Hotels in Frankfurt-Oder visit. Among other things, there are depictions of the Passion from around 1750 to admire. Originally, these were stage sets of a baroque theater. The pictures are unique in Europe and can be admired in the "Heavenly Theater" museum since 2015.

In Eisenhüttenstadt, the neighboring town of Frankfurt-Oder, the municipal museum is very well known. In the city history department you can learn more about the beginnings of the city, which was founded under the name of Fürstenberg. You will also learn a lot about traditional crafts and industrial development in the 19th and 20th centuries. In the museum, which has existed for more than 35 years, there is also a gallery with an art collection and a fire brigade and technology museum.

If you in our Hotel in Frankfurt-Oder are guests, a visit to Beeskow is definitely worthwhile. There, a regional museum is housed in the town's medieval castle. To this day, parts of the castle wall and the keep, on which there is also a viewing platform, have been preserved around the listed castle. In 1991, a culture and education center was set up in the castle, where, among other things, contemporary art and art from the GDR can be seen. In the regional museum you can learn more about the history of the Beeskow region.
