The Heimatkundliche Sammlung (Local history collection in the Heimathaus) displays an extensive archaeological, folklore, craft and local history collection of objects from the last three centuries from the town and surroundings of Pfarrkirchen (built in 1500). In addition to a collection of holy water kettles and pottery, there are also rural and domestic utensils as well as craft objects, e.g. blueprinting, pewter casting and textile production. Alternating with a collection of votive tablets, the town of Pfarrkirchen regularly holds art exhibitions.
