Nietzsche-Haus, Sils-Maria

The Nietzsche-Haus occupies a building from the 1800s, featuring five permanent exhibits including a recreation of the philosopher's rented room and study.

Friedrich Nietzsche resided in this house during seven summer seasons between 1881 and 1888, where he developed his concept of eternal return.

The museum maintains a substantial library containing one of the largest international collections of books and research materials about Nietzsche and his philosophy.

Researchers can arrange stays at the Nietzsche-Haus to access the library collections, which include rare manuscripts and personal artifacts from the philosopher.

The museum preserves Nietzsche's death mask and displays original furniture from his time as a professor at the University of Basel.
