The town museum in Hofheim am Taunus, which opened in 1993, is located in the immediate vicinity of the historic cellar district. The museum building was erected in 1717 by Johann Jakob Lipp as a residence for the Kurmainzer Hofgut he had acquired. Over the course of time, public institutions were repeatedly housed in the building until it was converted into a city museum in 1991. The combination of the old and new buildings opens up the view of the surrounding old town and connects the historic and modern Hofheim.
The permanent exhibition covers the areas of art, archaeology and town history. Special exhibitions address different themes and aspects of the collection. An extensive educational and outreach program is aimed at both younger and older visitors.
