The city museum of Siegburg demonstrates the history of Siegburg from prehistoric times until the formation of the Federal Republic of Germany. It mainly consists of a collection on ceramics of Siegburg that were famous until 17th century throughout Siegburg. The museum is also the birthplace of Engelbert Humperdinck and therefore a small area of the collection is dedicated to him. Worth seeing is the medieval cellar vault that has been conserved from the old town hall until in 1826 the centre of the Humperdinck house has been constructed upon it.
It is an abbey that used to be the residence of Benedictine monks until 2011 who produced a liquor called Siegburger Abtei-Likör (since 1504) and a beer called Michel (since 2004). The Michel beer can also be tried in the brewery of Siegburg which is located almost at the end of the Holzgasse in the pedestrian area. There is a small tourist tram (Michel-Express) starting off at Siegburg train station that takes people up to the abbey, especially recommended for elderly people as it is located on top of a mountain. It is also possible to walk up to the abbey as the mountain is only 118 metres high. The train runs every half an hour from 12:00 to 19:00 and round trip tickets for adults cost €3.
If you like swimming or diving the Oktopus Aquatic Centre can be recommended. It inhabits one of the biggest indoor diving centres of Europe. The diving tower has a depth of 20 metres and a diameter of 10 to 18 metres.
