Angermuseum, Art museum in Erfurt, Germany.

The Angermuseum is an art museum in central Erfurt, housed in a baroque building that dates to the early 18th century. The collection covers paintings, prints, ceramics, religious works, and decorative objects from a wide range of periods.

The museum opened in 1886, after the son of painter Friedrich von Nerly donated his father's art collection to the city of Erfurt. The building itself was originally constructed between 1706 and 1711 by architect Johann Maximilian von Welsch as a public weighing house, and was later converted for use as a museum.

The museum sits on the Anger, the main square of Erfurt, and has long been a familiar place for people in the city. Inside, works by local artists hang alongside pieces from broader European traditions, showing the connections this city maintained over the centuries.

The museum is right on the Anger, the main square of Erfurt, and easy to reach on foot from most parts of the city center. The collection covers many rooms and different themes, so allow yourself a generous amount of time if you want to see it fully.

Only 122 of the glass collection's more than 800 objects are on show in the permanent galleries. Among the pieces on display are fragments from the Death of St Francis (around 1250), which came from the Barfüßerkirche, and a pane showing the Ride of the Magi (after 1350) from the Marienkirche in Salzwedel.
