A House Full of Art, History, and Braunschweig Atmosphere

The permanent exhibition at the House at Löwenwall leads into one of the most significant municipal museums in Northern Germany. In the Art Nouveau building designed by Max Osterloh, an art experience unfolds that brings together painting, handicrafts, sculpture, and cultural history collections in an impressive exhibition atmosphere. Here, visitors encounter not only objects but a carefully curated narrative about Braunschweig, its citizen culture, and the pathways of art into modernity.

Art Nouveau as Spatial Art

The building itself is already part of the experience: floral ornaments, curved lines, a light court with arches, and light-flooded corridors shape the impression. This architecture enhances the aesthetic experience and turns the tour into a contemplation of artworks in a space where form, light, and material interact.

Collections with Art Historical Depth

The permanent exhibition showcases central holdings of the house, including paintings and graphics from the 19th century, Braunschweig handicrafts, sacred art, ethnological collections, historical musical instruments, and the Dexel collection of forms. Highlights include works by Carl Spitzweg, the Steinway grand piano played by Clara Schumann, Max Klinger's sculpture Cassandra, as well as the tethered balloon ad astra from 1784. Thus, a museum experience is created that elegantly combines art history and cultural education.

Education, Guided Tours, and Museum Education Perspectives

The Municipal Museum Braunschweig visibly emphasizes mediation: Guided tours, group offerings, as well as children’s and school programs complement the exhibition. This makes the visit not only informative but also cross-generationally accessible. For families, school classes, and art-interested groups, the house offers a vibrant approach to collection, city history, and art contemplation.

Visit with Cultural Value

The permanent exhibition at the House at Löwenwall is aimed at people who want to experience art not just visually, but in its historical and spatial context. Those wishing to discover Braunschweig from its culturally densest side will find here a museum with depth, character, and great aesthetic presence. A visit is absolutely worthwhile for all who wish to experience collections, architecture, and art historical diversity in a harmonious ensemble.
