On the top floor, in addition to a library, there are two sections with dioramas recreating rooms of the castle during the time when Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico (von Habsburg) lived there with his wife Princess Charlotte of Belgium, also known as Empress Charlotte (Carlota) of Mexico.
The museum also hosts a garden area and an old observatory. It is open Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 am to 5:00pm.
