At the end of the 1890s, Johann Krahuletz briefly considered selling his extensive scientific collection, because foreign prospective buyers offered him considerable sums of money. Eggenburg citizens, including the mayor, the head of the Eggenburger Sparkasse, the notary, the city doctor and the school principal, founded in November 1900 with other interested parties such as the district captain of Horn, the Krahuletz - society . Their goal was to preserve the collections for Eggenburg. At the same time, the city had committed to Johann Krahuletz, in addition to a life annuity for him to build a museum - the city was the owner of the collections of Krahuletz. Since the financial position of the city did not allow a museum, the newly founded club took over this obligation. For example, the Krahuletz Society built the Krahuletz Museum , which opened on October 12, 1902. As early as 1904, Emperor Franz Joseph I visited the museum and was guided through the exhibition by Krahuletz. This visit was arranged by the governor of Lower Austria, Erich Graf Kielmansegg, who had also become the "protector" of the association. In deliberate emphasis on continuity, the association calls itself today "Krahuletz - society". It still manages the collections of Krahuletz, but has significantly increased its stocks; the research activity is just as central a task. Since 1999, the staff of the museum is employed by the association, until then there were community employees. The Krahuletz Museum has close scientific contacts with the University of Vienna, in particular with the Institute of Paleontology and the Institute of Prehistoric Archeology, the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the University of Applied Arts, in particular on conservation issues. It is a competence center in the sense of the museum concept of the province of Lower Austria and makes its contents and museological knowledge available to other museums.
Super
Das Museum bietet einen Einblick in die Geologie, Frühgeschichte und Volkskunde der Region und in die Geschichte der Erforschung derselben. Das Museum bildet die Leistung des engagierten, autodidaktischen Sammlers und Forschers Johann Krahuletz ab. Die Integration von themenfremden Sammlungen (z.B. Uhren) erweitert das Angebot.
Viele Steine ;) Aber durchaus interessante Sonderausstellungen.
Gehen Sie hin, wenn's wieder möglich ist!
Sehr süß und vor allem informativ aufgebautes Museum. Ist mehr als nur einen Besuch wert und bringt mit Funden aus der Umgebung die Urgeschichte und Archäologie Österreichs näher.
Echt interessante Exponate und vor allem auch Modelle zum veranschaulichen wie was gewesen sein kann. Mit hoher Wahrschrinlichkeit, da dies durch Funde bestätigt zu sein scheint. Geschichtlich wie auch Erdgeschichtlich. Allerdings das ist mit kurzem durchgehen wohl kaum gemacht. Es ist gut sich Zeit zu nehmen. Mit der NÖ-CARD ist Eintritt beglichen,... Die NÖ-CARD. macht Sinn wenn man vieles machen will das mit dieser CARD Möglich ist.
