Buchheim Museum (Museum der Phantasie)

Buchheim Museum (Museum der Phantasie)
Buchheim Museum (Museum der Phantasie) on Lake Starnberg

For the collections of Lothar-Günther Buchheim – painter, photographer, publisher, author of art books and novels – architect Günter Behnisch has designed an open and multi-segmental structure that reflects the museum's extraordinary diversity. The legendary core of the collection, works of Expressionism predominantly by the artists' group Brücke (1905–1913), are shown in spacious halls. The more intimate rooms of the towers are reserved for the collections of folk art and ethnological artistry, as well as for Buchheim's own work. A unique architectural feature is the deck that is suspended twelve-meters high over the lake, providing museum visitors with a view of the town of Starnberg and the Alps.

Hours: April through October: Tuesday - Sunday and holidays 10am – 6pm. November - March: Tuesday to Sunday and holidays 10am – 5pm.

Admission: 8.50 € Adults, 3.50 € Concessions, 18 € Family card.
