As part of the Historical Museums of Reutlingen, the Reutlingen Museum of Local History is a museum dedicated to the history of the former Free Imperial City, then the district seat of Reutlingen in Württemberg and, in the present, the district town of Baden-Württemberg. The local history museum was founded in 1890 by an association for art and antiquity. His collection was initially housed in changing rooms before it found its current location in the former Königsbronner Hof from 1939 onwards. In addition to the permanently present collection of exhibits on event, social and cultural history, the museum, which has been expanded and redesigned since 1996, also shows special exhibitions on specific individual topics relating to the historical development of Reutlingen and its surrounding region.
