Museum am Lindenplatz

The neoclassical house from the year 1845 in the former centre of Altweil is home to the Museum at Lindenplatz. It served as a school and town hall for more than 120 years until the relocation of the city centre in the 1960s. It has been a museum ever since. In 2010, the latest permanent exhibition, the “Design-Collection h.th. baumann – kunst & design 1950-2010“ was opened to the public. The collection links the architecture and design of Weil am Rhein with local history. Professor Hans Theo Baumann was born and raised in Weil am Rhein and is regarded as one of Germany's most influential designers of the 20th century.
