Museum Ritter, Modern art museum in Waldenbuch, Germany.
Museum Ritter is an art museum in Waldenbuch that displays geometric and abstract works in a minimalist building designed by Swiss architect Max Dudler. The architecture, with its clean lines and simple forms, itself serves as an artistic statement and sits on the outskirts of town.
The museum opened in 2005 and houses over 1000 artworks from collector Marli Hoppe-Ritter's personal collection. The collection focuses particularly on the square as a central geometric form throughout modern art movements.
The collection displays works from Russian Constructivism, Op Art, and kinetic art movements that explore movement and optical effects. Visitors can observe how 20th-century artists experimented with geometric forms and colors to create new perceptual experiences.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday and offers audio guides in multiple languages for a deeper understanding of the works. There is plenty of space to explore throughout the galleries, and the building sits at an accessible location even for those arriving from downtown.
The museum sits right next to the Ritter Sport chocolate factory, which visitors can explore on the same day. This unusual location brings together two completely different worlds in one area, creating a memorable visit.
