— Exhibition rooms on the ground floor —
In 2006 and 2007, the association set up three exhibition rooms on the ground floor of the castle. A precondition for this was the refurbishinment of the completely demolished rooms as well as the installation of windows and doors. On display are remnants which once belonged to the original stock of the residence and to the inventory of the castle museum, as well as numerous engravings, paintings, models, etc. They serve to illustrate both the history of the building and the current activities of the association.

— Exhibition rooms on the upper floors —
After the installation of reinforced concrete slabs the cubature consisting of five rooms on the first floor, which formerly belonged to the apartment of princess Johanna Elisabeth, came once again into being. Portraits of the princely family and old prints of the rooms now bestow an impression of contemporary life during the rococo period. The main highlight is the second princely ante-room, which was restored as an original sized image,with the aid of historical photographs and archive documents in 2010. On the second floor, it is at last possible to view the now completely destroyed former childhood rooms of the empress Catherine II.
