He designed his private home from the outset as a centre for African art, music, and literature, such that over the years it became known as the [[Afrika-Haus Freiberg\|Africa House]]. He bequeathed it to the town as a museum. The house and its grounds contain some 150 sculptures and pictures, some of which Arthur Benseler collected on his voyages over 30 years, while the rest have been added by the town of Freiberg. The museum in Geisingen Manor (''Museum im Schlössle'') documents the historical development of Freiberg. Exhibits portray its early history from the first traces of human settlement through the history of the local territorial lords, the development of crafts, agriculture and industry as well as the local effects of war and other times of hardship. During Christmas there used to be an exhibition on ''[[springerle]]'' (a type of anise biscuit with an embossed design), however, during the last two years the museum's ''springerle'' moulds have been loaned to the Württemberg State Museum.
