The local museum has been housed in the historic Dottenwil Castle (1543-1597) since 1998. The exhibitions are dedicated to customs, local and regional history. The main themes are simple living in the 18th and 19th centuries, stately living (1880-1920) in Wittenbach, old musical instruments in a Biedermeier room and an old school and girls' needlework room. In the coach house there are exhibits of the old crafts in Wittenbach: the blacksmith, carpenter, printer, brickmaker, saddler, tailor, wagon maker and carpenter as well as old scales. There are also exhibits on religious folk art and customs. The "Holy Sepulchre" from the parish church of St. Ulrich (1890/1935), which was still in use until 1952, is of particular importance. Temporary exhibitions on contemporary artistic themes are presented in the gallery.
