From 1308 till 1463 the castle in Tangermünde was the centre of power of the electors of Brandenburg. The Empower Karl IV wrote history here: within the framework of a big court day he organized the hereditary unification of the Mark Brandenburg with the Kingdom of Bohemia. Documents, references of law and religion give an insight into the three complexes of a residence in the late middle Ages-chambers, a court and a foundation.
In a second part the castle is presented as a Brandenburgian-Prussian department from 1463 till 1869. The reconstruction of the castle complex around the turn of the century forms the final part of the exhibition.
