GRASSI Museum of Applied Arts Leipzig, Museum of Decorative Arts at Johannisplatz, Leipzig, Germany
The Grassi Museum for Applied Arts spans across three floors, containing over 230,000 objects from antique to contemporary design periods.
Franz Dominic Grassi, a Leipzig merchant, provided two million marks in 1880 to establish this museum among other cultural institutions in the city.
The permanent collection features European artifacts through three distinct periods: antiquity to 1750, 1750 to 1950, and modern designs after 1950.
The museum opens Wednesday and Thursday from 10:00 to 20:00, with standard admission at 8 euros and reduced rates at 5.50 euros.
The building incorporates Art Deco elements and features restored stairwell windows designed by Josef Albers, reconstructed after World War II damage.
