Villa Stuck
Museum Villa Stuck
An Art Nouveau home designed by the symbolist painter Franz von Stuck himself, with its opulent original salons and special exhibitions both on show.
Villa Stuck was designed and built by the 'Painter Prince of Munich', Franz von Stuck, himself between 1897 and 1898. It blends classical temple architecture with Jugendstil (Art Nouveau). The historic rooms retain furniture, murals and mosaic floors that he designed, as well as a version of his famous painting Sin, and it stands as a representative of Munich's fin-de-siècle art. The new wing and studio regularly host special exhibitions of design and contemporary art. It is closed on Mondays, and admission is about 9 to 12 euros depending on the exhibition. Located on the east bank of the Isar near the Angel of Peace statue, it is about a five-minute walk from Prinzregentenplatz station on the U4 or U5, and it can be combined with a visit to Maximilianstraße.
