The Pays de Hanau Museum is housed in a remarkably renovated architectural complex, listed as a Historic Monument. The 16th century wheat market and the former 14th century castle chapel serve as the setting for this Museum of France, a real tool for interpreting a territory with multiple heritages.

In 1994, the town of Bouxwiller joined the mutualised conservation scheme set up by the Vosges du Nord Regional Nature Park and appointed a professional curator. The project of a society museum, dealing with the territory as a whole and in all its dimensions, beyond popular arts and traditions, began to emerge. It then obtained the "Musée de France" designation and became municipal.
On 29 June 2013, after two years of work, the new Museum of the Pays de Hanau opened its doors and exhibited a selection of its collections in an attractive and warm scenography.
