Description

A museum for contemplating, learning to observe, engaging in discussion, and escaping from everyday life! Discover a tour covering nearly 7,000 years of history, from prehistory to 21st-century art.
On April 3, 1853, the Unterlinden Museum officially opened its doors. It features works of art such as the 3rd-century mosaic discovered in Bergheim in 1848, the Isenheim Altarpiece and Martin Schongauer's Dominican Altarpiece, which were seized during the French Revolution.

Today, the Unterlinden Museum offers its many visitors dialogue and knowledge, emotion and pleasure. It offers a tour covering nearly 7,000 years of history, from prehistory to 21st-century art.

This journey through time, at the heart of the archaeology, fine arts, history and society collections, allows visitors to discover the many facets of the museum's architecture, unified and enhanced by the redevelopment and extension by the architects Herzog & de Meuron, completed in 2015.

As visitors explore the rooms of the former 13th-century convent, the former Municipal Baths inaugurated in 1906, the contemporary spaces built in 2015, and the museum's collections, they can appreciate the successive stages of a history spanning more than 170 years.

The museum team will welcome you and accompany you on your visit, whether self-guided or with a guide, and whether you are alone, with your family, or with friends.

For half an hour or half a day, the Unterlinden Museum is yours.
