Bavarian State Archaeological Collection, Archaeological museum in Lehel district, Munich, Germany.

The Bavarian State Archaeological Collection presents 120,000 years of regional history through artifacts displayed across five specialized departments in a modern building.

Founded in 1885 by physiologist Johannes Ranke, the museum began with his personal collection of prehistoric Bavarian objects donated to the Kingdom of Bavaria.

The museum maintains restoration facilities and twelve regional branches across Bavaria, each focusing on local archaeological discoveries and historical preservation techniques.

Located at Lerchenfeldstr 2, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with extended hours until 7:00 PM on Thursdays.

The collection includes a 3,000-year-old dugout canoe from Roseninsel and a preserved wooden well shaft discovered at Marienhof in Munich.
