The New York architect Richard Meier described Museum Frieder Burda in Baden-Baden, which opened in October 2004, as a “jewel in the park”. Along the famous Lichtentaler Allee, he created a unique architecture that is bathed in light, in which the interior and exterior, contemporary art and romantic park landscape are in constant dialogue. Spread over four levels, Museum Frieder Burda presents artworks from the 20th and 21st centuries in changing exhibitions. These focus, on the one hand, on themes and artists relevant to the collection, for example, Pablo Picasso, Max Beckmann or Sigmar Polke. On the other hand, they also present current contemporary positions such as those of Andreas Gursky, JR and Katharina Grosse. The museum is funded by Stiftung Frieder Burda, a foundation with full legal capacity under Germany’s Civil Code.
The museum is beautiful, modern and has received award in its architecture. It is white and with glass with lots of lights located next to the beautiful park in the centre. It is just 2 or 3 minutes walk from the town centre and shops. At the time when we visited, there were a few temporary high quality exhibitions so there was no space for the permanent collections. The main exhibition was Karin Kneffel who is the top student of Gerhard Richter. The exhibition was absolutely brilliant. The shop was very nice and sells high quality goods. There is a coffee shop and through the other end of the coffee shop is another museum, Staatliche Kunsthalle which unfortunately we did not have time to visit. We enjoy this museum and the temporary exhibitions very much.

The PEAC Museum shows international contemporary art on 1000 square meters. Based on a fundamental interest in minimalist tendencies, the PAUL EGE ART COLLECTION is one of Europe's largest and most significant collections in the field of radical painting.
