Museum Neues Weimar

The former Grand Ducal Museum, built in 1869, was one of the first museums established in Germany. In years past, the museum mainly served as a venue for temporary exhibitions, but in April 2019, it will reopen with a permanent exhibition on early modernist art from the Weimar Painting School to Henry van de Velde. A large museum workshop invites guests to experiment with the techniques of the arts and crafts.

Reviewed By inemarien - Brussels, Belgium

A MUST for all those who wish to understand how and by whom Modernism came to Weimar and prepared the way for Gropius and Bauhaus. Extremely well documented, including exceptional historical insights into the role of personalities such as Harry Graf Kessler, the role of Van de Velde as director of the Weimarer School of Arts and forerunner of Bauhaus. Moreover the exhibition is showcasting the largest selection of works, drawings and objects of Van de Velde we ever saw. One advice: don t miss this excellent exhibition!

Nietzsche-Archiv

An ailing Friedrich Nietzsche spent his final years at the “Villa Silberblick” in the care of his sister Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. After his death, she commissioned Henry van de Velde to refurbish the building, especially the rooms of the archive. The interior designs and furnishings are among the most exquisite creations ever made by the Belgian architect and designer.

Bauhaus-Museum Weimar

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the State Bauhaus in Weimar, the Klassik Stiftung Weimar presents the grand opening of the new Bauhaus Museum Weimar in April 2019, showcasing the treasures of the world’s oldest Bauhaus collection. As a place of open encounter and discussion, the museum highlights the early phase of the most influential school of art and design of the 20th century, tying its history to questions of how we envision our living environment today and in the future.

The museum gives an interesting introduction to Bauhaus at the place the artistic movement was born. Buy a card that allows you to combine the different Bauhaus hotspots in town. Much cheaper.
