Glasmuseum Rheinbach, Glass history museum in Rheinbach, Germany.

Glasmuseum Rheinbach occupies the Himmeroder Hof, a half-timbered complex from the first half of the 18th century. Its collection focuses on North Bohemian hollow glass from the 19th and early 20th centuries, with Baroque cut glass, Biedermeier coloured and cut pieces, Historismus goblets, and Art Nouveau and Art Deco glass from Steinschönau and Haida. A section covers modern studio glass and the Rheinbach glass school.

The museum traces its origin to spring 1968, when around 100 Rheinbach residents founded the Friends of Noble Glass association on the initiative of North Bohemian glass refiners settled in the town after World War II. A museum opened that same year in the former town hall, with the Hickisch Foundation as the core of its collection. The city took over the museum in 1980, and in 1989 it moved into the renovated Himmeroder Hof.

The museum's founding in 1968 came from North Bohemian glass refiners who settled in Rheinbach after World War II; around 100 residents formed the Friends of Noble Glass association that same spring. The Hickisch Foundation supplied the first collection. In the museum workshop visitors can watch craftsmen working glass, and a section covers the development of Rheinbach glass art, including pieces by instructors of the town's glass school.

The museum occupies a building that also serves as the city council chamber, making it accessible across several levels. Plan enough time to explore all floors and exhibition areas comfortably.

The museum's largest exhibition hall doubles as the meeting room of Rheinbach's city council, so the building serves both as a glass museum and as a civic space. The museum opened in 1968 in the town's former town hall before moving into the renovated Himmeroder Hof in 1989.
