Museum education
The Salzland Museum offers many different educational programmes that invite visitors to participate, linger, entertain and learn. Whether for schoolchildren as part of extracurricular learning, for senior citizens for class reunions, for travel groups or individual tourists - guided tours of one of the three permanent exhibitions or a tour of the entire museum are in constant demand. Especially for school classes, there is the option of adding a practical part to the tour to create a project or hiking day.
For visitors interested in museums, offers are developed for events such as the Museum Night, both for adults and children, and the International Museum Day.
Examples of guided tours and projects:
- Combined tour with the solar park (graduation tower, brine fountain,...)
- Craft salt with leather bag project
- Cultural identification project: From the Stone Age to the Early Bronze Age

The archive contains archival material on the history of the museum, texts and images of Schönebeck and the surrounding area as well as regional history.
