Museum Nordenham
City museum in a former elementary school from 1892 that tells the history of Nordenham on the Lower Weser from prehistoric times to the postwar period.
Om museet
The Museum Nordenham is housed in a listed school building on Hansingstraße, built in 1892 as an elementary school in the late Neoclassical style. After the Second World War it served as Grundschule Süd until 1964 and was then used for a time by the Gymnasium before being converted for museum purposes in 1977. Since then the building has been renovated several times; in front of the entrance stands the lantern of the former Einswarden upper lighthouse from 1896.
The museum is run by the Rüstringer Heimatbund. The permanent exhibition, whose redesign was supported by the State of Lower Saxony and the city of Nordenham, among others, leads in chronological order through the development of the town on the left bank of the Weser: from early settlement by the Chauci and Frisians through diking and land reclamation to the founding of the port in the mid-19th century, livestock export to England, the era as an emigrant port, industry, fishing and shipbuilding, the Second World War, and the postwar period. A staged ship that seems to sail out of the room stands for the town's close ties to the water and at the same time carries archaeological finds from about 5,000 years.
Among the best-known pieces are two versions of the "Bruderkussbild" (Fraternal Kiss painting) by Hugo Zieger, on loan from the Lübben family. A short introductory film presents the town's founder Wilhelm Müller, and since 2019 a permanent exhibition of its own has been devoted to the Nordenham painter Emy Rogge. The museum holds the museum quality seal for Lower Saxony and Bremen; civil wedding ceremonies take place in the furnished Frisian Room.
