Rosengart Collection
Sammlung Rosengart
A private museum holding about 300 works by Picasso and Paul Klee, along with masterpieces by Monet, Cézanne and Chagall.
The Rosengart Collection was founded from the collection of the Lucerne art dealer Siegfried Rosengart and his daughter Angela. It opened in 2002 in a building that was once a branch of the Swiss National Bank. The main draw is about 125 late works by Picasso and more than 100 works by Paul Klee. There are also Impressionist and modern works by Cézanne, Monet, Renoir, Matisse, Chagall and Miró. Downstairs are candid photographs of Picasso's life taken by the photographer David Douglas Duncan. Admission is about CHF 20. It is about a 5-minute walk from the train station.
