9 Museums in Wiesbaden That You Shouldn't Miss
Tucked in a lovely valley between the Rhine River and the Taunus Mountains, Hesse's capital of Wiesbaden has long been an important spa city, dating back to Roman times when it was called Aquae Mattiacorum. In the 19th century, Wiesbaden also became a popular gambling center. For a soothing plunge, try the famous Kaiser Friedrich's Therme in the city center. And don't miss the Schlossplatz (Palace Square) and impressive Kurhaus Wiesbaden event and conference center, both within a few blocks.

Visit Museum Wiesbaden, the Hesse State Museum of Art and Nature. The museum's exhibits range from natural history objects to contemporary art. Its collections „Old Masters“, „19th Century and Art Nouveau“, „Classic Modernism“, „Contemporary Art and Modernism“ on the one hand, and the Natural History Collections on the other hand, are connected in a ‘round trip‘ tour uniting the aesthetic experience of both its art and natural history exhibits. The museum owns an important collection of the work of Alexej von Jawlensky. Since June 2019 Museum Wiesbaden displays the Art Nouveau collection of Ferdinand Wolfgang Neess as a permanent exhibition in its southern wing. Its more than 570 objects provide a cross section of all Art Nouveau genres, including prime examples of the quality and stylistic virtuosity boasted by late 19th-century art. Along with the Frankfurt Museum of Modern Art, it is one of the most important museums for Modernism in Hessen.

This museum is close to downtown and easy to get to. Two separate museums. One is art and the other is natural history. The main rotunda is 4 stories high and has a unique mirror system that lets you see all around the top of the rotunda. From the old masters to the new, the art covers all types.

Friend i was traveling with was after a cuckoo clock, so i was along for the ride. Shop was pretty easy to find from the street. Staff inside were very friendly and kept me entertained while my friend perused the numerous clocks available. Also has a nice selection of beer steins, nutcrackers, and various other souvenirs to bring home.
