1989 wurde das moderne Gebäude aus Glas und Stahl an das benachbarte historische Gasthaus "Zur Krone" angebaut, in dem das Stadtarchiv untergebracht ist. Verschiedene Abteilungen befassen sich mit der Geschichte der Stadt von der Bronzezeit bis zur Neuzeit. Im Saal des Museums finden regelmäßig Konzerte, Autorenlesungen und Vorträge zu geschichtlichen Themen statt. Seit einigen Jahren ist es darüber hinaus möglich, sich im historischen Ambiente des Stadtmuseums trauen zu lassen.

Die Schlacht bei Eschborn (1389)
Die alamannischen Funde (ein Gräberfeld aus der Zeit des 4./5. Jhdts. n. Chr.)
Die Sammlung des Malers Hanny Franke (1890–1973)
