In the former forester's house from the 17th century, the Archaeological Working Group maintains a museum with archaeological finds from the region.

Special highlight: garments and jewelry of the "Fallingbostel Bride from Hungary" and the "Man from Bokel". The latter was found in Bad Fallingbostel in 1904 and is considered a special feature of the early Bronze Age in the Lüneburg Heath region.

Special exhibitions regularly show the current excavation activities and research results from the Heidekreis.
