The Sculpture Hall has elaborate works by Martin and Michael Zürn and by the popular Schwanthaler sculpture dynasty on display. The archeological collection includes a copy of the "Uttendorf Gold Necklace" from the Hallstatt period and a rare jug made of clay. Large diagrams document the history of archaeological finds from Prehistoric to modern age times in the District of Braunau.
