Unterlinden Museum

Founded in 1853 by the Schongauer Society, the Unterlinden Museum stands as a major cultural site in Alsace. Located in Colmar, it offers a journey through nearly 7,000 years of art history, from Prehistory to contemporary creation. The route, where heritage and modernity respond to each other, unfolds within a remarkable architectural ensemble: a 13th-century Dominican convent, the former municipal baths built in 1906, and a contemporary extension designed by architects Herzog & de Meuron in 2015.

The museum houses rich and varied collections, including masterpieces such as the famous Isenheim Altarpiece, created by Matthias Grünewald and Nicolas de Haguenau. Its holdings also cover ancient, modern, and contemporary art, providing a comprehensive view of artistic evolution.

Visitors can explore the permanent collections, discover temporary exhibitions, and participate in various events, for a dynamic cultural experience accessible to all.
