Choose it for a focused material story rather than another painting collection. The displays let you compare forms and decoration across places and centuries, while the Schulstraße location makes it easy to follow with the nearby Filmmuseum or riverfront. That narrow focus makes comparisons easier than in a general museum.
What to look for
Ceramic vessels from different cultures.
The museum entrance and historic building on Schulstraße.
Useful to know
