About the museum

The Glückstadt Detlefsen Museum was founded in 1894 and has been housed in the Brockdorff Palace at Fleth 43 since 1969. At that time it still shared the rooms with the town library. Since 1992/93, the stately building on Fleth has been used exclusively for the museum and the city archives. Since 2015, only the museum has been housed in the Brockdorff-Palais and presents its collection on over 1000 square metres.
