Around the time of Christ, Eschenz was the site of an important crossing over the Rhine, around which the Roman settlement of Tasgetium was built.

The second floor of the museum displays archaeological finds from Eschenz, from the first traces of human presence on Untersee to the end of the Roman period. The damp soil in Eschenz has preserved wooden objects excellently - including an intact panpipe and a small statue of a Celtic founder figure. A golden cup from the Bronze Age was found during track work near the railroad station at the turn of the century.
The museum presents a rich collection of original finds such as arrowheads, combs, pottery and writing tablets. The originals of the most valuable finds can be seen in the Museum of Archaeology in Frauenfeld, while copies are on display in the Eschenz Museum.
The second floor of the museum contains everyday objects, memorabilia and documents from the village's history.
