Salder Castle was built in 1608 in the Renaissance style. The municipal museum of the city of Salzgitter has been housed here for over 50 years.

Its exhibitions focus on information about the history of the entire Salzgitter region, from the history of the earth to the end of the 20th century.

The "star" of the geology department is a fish dinosaur (ichthyosaur) that lived in the Lower Cretaceous period 115 million years ago and whose skeleton was discovered in Salzgitter in 1940 during underground ore mining.
