BikiniARTmuseum

BikiniARTmuseum is a museum dedicated to swimwear history and cultural expression through dress. The displays feature actual bathing garments, photographs, and interactive installations that trace developments across different regions and time periods.

The museum opened in 2020 and focuses on swimwear development across three centuries of bathing culture worldwide. This approach connects the local German spa tradition with broader trends in how people swam, played, and dressed.

The collection reveals how attitudes toward the body and swimming customs shifted across generations and continents. Displays show these changes through actual garments, offering insight into what people wore and why those choices mattered.

The museum is easy to reach by car or public transportation, with free parking available on-site. The building is fully accessible, making it straightforward for all visitors to move through the galleries and outdoor areas.

The building itself was part of Bad Rappenau's wellness heritage, connecting the town's long history with the spa and water culture. Housing a museum here means visitors experience bathing culture in a space shaped by that same tradition.
