Tomi Ungerer Museum-International Illustration Centre

Different experience in this museum. Tickets for adults cost 7.5 Euros. Recommended to visit 🙂

Spare yourselves from visiting this museum. It is a waste of time. The villa is wonderful from the outside but the shows and the inner spaces are just lame. If you're interested in Tomi Ungerer's work, you better read his books. Just the worst museum visit I've done in France.

Unlike "high art," illustration is often seen as utilitarian—something "lesser" in the world of visual arts. But the Tomi Ungerer Museum in Strasbourg shatters that notion with its playful brilliance. Here, you’re greeted by childlike wonder, deceptive simplicity, and undeniable genius. The works radiate a sense of calm, yet they’re alive with wit and spirit. Ungerer’s illustrations—whether cheeky, profound, or delightfully absurd—remind us that art doesn’t need pretension to be powerful. The museum itself feels like stepping into the mind of a creative rebel: curious, unafraid, and endlessly imaginative. A must-visit for anyone who believes art should spark joy, provoke thought, and embrace the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Interesting comic and illustration museum. 3 floors, but skip the bottom floor for kids since the material was disturbing.

it’s a nice weekend activity, 1 hour museuming

I'm happy to learn about an artist I've never heard of before. The museum only displays the early works of Tomo Ungerer. Very little of his new works. Would have loved to see his carreer portraied more thoroughly.

It was nice to have an idea about the illustrated Toni Ungerer. I would expect more explanation and presentation. It was quite easy to visit. The museum was not too big. They said they change the collection of Toni. And there was also temporary exhibition.

Tomi Ungerer is a famous Strasbourgouise, make sure you see his cartoons when in the museum.
