Tips for your visit

We are working on comprehensively modernising the castle building for you. One of the first steps is the renovation of the only lift from 17 February to probably 4 April 2025. During this time, the exhibitions in the castle can therefore only be reached via stairs. If you have any specific questions about accessibility, please contact our visitor service. CONTINUE...


The Globushaus and the Baroque Garden are on winter break until 14 April 2025.

Research

Museum research is often geared to the materials found and provides a fundamental contribution for numerous study projects. In addition to the archaeological methods, scientific analytic processes are applied here.

One of the Archaeological Museum Schloss Gottorf’s research focuses is on non-destructive or minor-destructive analytical material examinations. Individual cooperation with well-known archaeological research centres and innovative research associations enables us to participate in current developments and also to integrate our competences in international collaboration networks.

Year-long research excavations, for example in Haithabu or the Slavic Centre Starigard/Oldenburg as well as research projects on Stone Age settlements provided complex information and large quantities of findings whose management in the meantime has become a central question of sustainable research.

For this, we cooperate closely with the Centre for Baltic and Scandinavian Archaeology on the development of three-dimensional linkage of geometrical and factual information in geographic information systems as a central key element. Also, internationally geared conventions are held on specific research questions.
