The Criminal and Gendarmerie Museum at Scharnstein documents the history of Austrian justice and security from the late Middle Ages to the present day across more than 20 exhibition rooms. In the vaults of the historic castle, which housed the regional court from 1584 to 1848, the museum displays court proceedings, torture, punishment, the history of the gendarmerie since 1849, and notable criminal cases.
