From December to May one can observe the eggs and spawn of the fine “Rötel” (red trout) from Lake Zug, as well as whitefish, pike and brown trout. The hatching glass – a renowned Zug invention dating back to 1882 – can be seen here along with curiosities like bridal wreaths made out of fish scales and human fish.

This Museum appeals equally to children, teenagers and adults. Apart from displaying objects in glass cases, it also offers audio-visual descriptions of the Early Ages, with life-like displays and models of settlements: for example, a reindeer-hunters’ camp in the Ice Age, a pile-village in the New Stone Age or a sacrificial scene on a Roman tomb. The highlight of the Museum is the scale-model of a house from the Bronze Age, and there is a special gallery for children, with games and books.
