The Höchst Porcelain Museum currently has three permanent exhibitions and one special exhibition: The permanent exhibition "Highest Quality and Baroque Adornment" traces the history of the old Höchst Porcelain Manufactory from 1746 to the present day. Another highlight is the Kurt Bechtold collection. Around 750 Höchst faiences and porcelains from the municipal collection are also on display.
