There are currently texts, images and audio files for almost every room, from prehistory through the Roman period up to around 1200 AD. In the course of the intended renewal of the younger sections in the next few years, it is planned to complete the app for this section as well. The audios are mostly designed as radio plays and thus bring the museum's contents to life.


There are also two videos: one explains the significance of a Celtic-era finds, the other shows the development of Straubing’s old town from the Roman timest o the High Middle Ages. That last one can be played as a holographic projection with a pyramid attchement available in the museum shop.
