The traditional Bitterfeld District Museum offers surprising insights into regional history and the local flora and fauna. Special highlights include the amber cellar and the ballooning exhibition. There are also separate exhibition areas dedicated to the once important stoneware industry and the production of synthetic gemstones. The Bitterfeld District Museum is an institution of the district of Anhalt-Bitterfeld.
