Staatliches Museum Schwerin
Staatliches Museum Schwerin, Art museum in Schwerin, Germany
The Staatliches Museum Schwerin is an art museum with collections spanning three centuries across several buildings next to the Staatstheater and near the castle. The galleries display painting, sculpture, and decorative arts from different periods and regions.
The museum was founded in 1882 by Grand Duke Frederick Francis II to preserve the region's artistic traditions. Over the decades it developed into a significant collection of European artworks.
The museum displays artworks from the region and across Europe, including medieval altarpieces and paintings from the Netherlands and Flanders. Visitors encounter works gathered over centuries that reflect the artistic heritage of Northern Europe.
The museum buildings are connected by corridors and stairs, allowing visitors to move through the galleries at their own pace. Signs and guided tours in multiple languages help people navigate and learn more about the collections.
The museum houses one of Europe's largest collections of works by Marcel Duchamp with around 90 pieces by the French-American artist. This surprising assembly makes Schwerin an important place for understanding Duchamp's artistic vision.
