Augustiner Museum

I was really impressed by the amount of detail and history in this museum. You can tell a lot of effort went into explaining the stories behind everything on display. It wasn’t just objects there was real meaning behind them. I learned so much just walking through, and it made the experience feel worthwhile and memorable, I will definitely recommend you visit while you are in Freiburg.❤️

A not very large museum, housed in the building of a former church. In general, you will see religious art. A unique and interesting fact is that there is a small room where you can watch the restoration of some paintings live through the window. There is a small painting exhibition in the attic. On the ground floor is an temporary exhibition with objects from the former German colonies in Africa. If you are not a fan of religious art, you visit it in about an hour.

This museum was really nice and surprisingly extensive! I was amazed at the very beginning! You get to see some really cool statues and learn about some really interesting history!

A must-visit musuem while in Freiburg! Beautiful museum full of amazing art pieces from the medieval ages set in an ancient monastery. All the descriptions are well written and the museum is organized well. Much of the museum has been well preserved and restored, and there is a lot of construction on the exterior but it very minimally affected my experience inside. Great addition of an elevator for those handicapped or not capable of going up many flights of stairs. The special exhibits on the bottom of the museum and top were very engaging and well curated.

I'm in love with the place. Must see together with the Cathedral. The space is fantastic. I've never had a chance to see original sculptures from medieval churches so close. The paintings collection is beautiful, with some fantastic works from north Renaissance of Cranach, Grin and Grünewald. I used App for a tour and it works amazing. You can download the audio guide in advance from the website and there are plenty of materials to understand the collection better in addition to the audio guide. For example, there is an interesting video about baroque organ from the museum. It was a fantastic day visiting the museum and the Cathedral, both must see in Freiburg.

An excellent museum. I truly enjoyed the wonderful artworks on display. The lady at the front desk was very kind and welcoming. However, while visiting the second floor, one of the gallery attendants seemed a bit overly strict. I did not touch any artwork and kept a reasonable distance of about 30 cm, yet she repeatedly said "No, no, no" and followed me around, which I found quite unpleasant. Despite this, I greatly appreciate the museum and the effort put into providing such a remarkable experience.

The museum is set in an old church which has been renovated and converted. Beautiful building with an outstanding roof showing the ancient oak beams. All the pieces are of religious significance and all beautifully maintained and preserved. Unfortunately the staff watched you like a hawk which really put you on edge...

The main hall that you see when entering the museum is stunning. The same can be said about the ancient organ installed in the rear chamber.
