Unterlinden Museum in Colmar
The Unterlinden Museum is undoubtedly one of the major tourist attractions in the charming town of Colmar, in French Alsace. If you want to discover all the secrets hidden in this veritable temple of culture, don't forget to book your ticket!
You'll visit the Unterlinden Museum on your own, so you'll have complete freedom to explore the different rooms at your own pace. The building reflects Alsatian architecture throughout the centuries, combining the structure of a former 13th-century convent with the modernity of Herzog & de Meuron's work and Art Deco bathrooms.
The Unterlinden Museum in Colmar has a wide variety of collections, from archaeological pieces to paintings by great masters such as Martin Schongauer, Claude Monet and Pablo Picasso. It also has exhibitions of decorative arts and popular arts and traditions.
During your visit, don't miss the museum's crown jewel, the famous Isenheim Altarpiece. This work of art, one of the most valuable in the region, was created by German painter Matthias Grünewald between 1512 and 1516. The Isenheim Altarpiece stands out for its powerful expressiveness and drama, with a very raw and realistic representation of the characters. The central panel, depicting the crucifixion, is the best known. You'll love it!
In addition, for those who want an even more complete experience, you can hire an audio guide to learn all the details about the museum's most important works.
The duration of the visit is flexible, although it takes between 1 and 2 hours to see everything.
Opening Times
The Unterlinden Museum is open Wednesday to Monday from 9 am to 6 pm. Please note that the ticket office closes 30 minutes before closing time, so the last admission is at 5:30 pm.
