Purrmann house, Art museum in Speyer, Germany.
The Purrmann House is an art museum in Speyer displaying a collection of about 100 paintings, watercolors, prints, and personal objects. The exhibition documents the artistic work of both artists across several decades.
Hans Purrmann founded the Académie Matisse in Paris and worked closely with Henri Matisse, which significantly influenced his artistic practice from 1905 onward. This connection to French modernism shaped the artistic direction of both artists.
The house displays works by Hans and Mathilde Purrmann, two artists who engaged deeply with modern painting. The rooms preserve the personal and creative environment of an artist couple dedicated to their craft throughout their lives.
The museum is open Thursday through Sunday and offers access to the works in a quiet, manageable setting. Visitors should allow time to explore both the artworks and the personal objects displayed.
The house hosts regular concerts in collaboration with Speyer Music School, with performances taking place directly in the exhibition spaces. This blend of visual art and music creates unexpected moments for visitors.
