The “Steinberg-Wackersdorf Local History Working Group e.V.” strives to preserve BBI's company history. A local history and lignite museum was set up in the historic Steinberg rectory from the 17th century. The documentation of brown coal extraction is recorded on around 20 picture boards in several rooms. There are display cases with excavator models, minerals, fossils, miner's lamps and documents; Large mining parts such as excavator shovels or drilling rigs are set up in an outdoor area.

It's worth a look. It's beautifully located, right next to the Fenzl Inn.
