“Museums in the Neighborhood”: Magnetic Finds, Factory Stories, and the Charm of a Rectory

Some museums surprise you the moment you step through the door. Sometimes you descend deep into vaulted cellars filled with artifacts recovered from rivers and lakes; other times, you’re immersed in the industrial and everyday history of Ludwigsburg or in life in a parsonage around 1900. With the Magnetangler Museum in Oberstenfeld, the Pflugfelder Torhaus in Ludwigsburg, and the local museum “Im Alten Pfarrhaus” in Schwieberdingen, the county is presenting three extraordinary museums in the “Musea im Flecka” series that bring the past to life in very different ways.

Hidden Treasures Beneath the Water's Surface

At the world’s first magnetic fishing museum in Oberstenfeld, rusty artifacts, coins, tools, and even relics from past decades are waiting to tell their stories. “Every artifact has its own fascinating story,” says Markus Kronenwett of the operating association K Team Umwelt- und Gewässerschutz n. e. V.—and it is precisely this blend of adventure, history, and the spirit of discovery that gives the museum its special charm.

Memories of Ludwigsburg’s Economic History

At the Pflugfelder Torhaus in Ludwigsburg, on the other hand, memories come flooding back: Caro coffee, Bleyle knitwear, and toys from days gone by allow many visitors to immerse themselves in their childhoods.

Experience everyday life around 1900 up close

A journey back in time to the everyday culture of farmers and townspeople awaits guests at the local museum “Im Alten Pfarrhaus” in Schwieberdingen. History comes to life amid historic kitchen utensils, craft tools, and artfully furnished living spaces. A special highlight: a fully operational outdoor blacksmith’s shop, where demonstration blacksmithing is still offered today during various events.
