Sinclair-Haus, Art museum in Bad Homburg vor der Höhe, Germany
The Sinclair-Haus is a late baroque villa with plaster facades and a sandstone portal that now functions as an art museum. The building presents rotating exhibitions exploring themes of nature, creation, and contemporary art.
The villa was built in 1708 for researcher Elias Neuhof and later took its name from diplomat Isaac von Sinclair, who represented Hessen-Homburg at the Congress of Vienna. This historical connection continues to define the building's identity.
The building functions as a venue for art exhibitions that explore the relationship between people and nature. Visitors encounter changing displays supplemented by lectures, concerts, and experimental artistic formats.
The museum is centrally located in Bad Homburg and is easily accessible by public transportation. Visitors should note that opening hours vary by day of the week and that parking on the grounds is limited.
The building narrowly escaped demolition but was saved through restoration by Altana AG in 1978. This rescue enabled its transformation into a space for contemporary art exhibitions.
