Museum of Bread Culture
Grains and bread have left a deep mark on the lives of the people: on their work, their wellbeing, but also on their suffering. The Museum of Bread Culture shows the history of bread, forming the basis of human existence, culture and civilisation. Its historical, artistic, cultural, artisanal, socio-political and technological dimensions are illustrated here.
The art collection of the museum surprises every visitor with its theme-based paintings and sculptures, dating from the Middle Ages to the present day: works by Flegel, Brueghel d. J., Stoskopff, Rembrandt, Brarlch, Beckmann, Dalí, Kollwitz, Picasso, Chagall and Man Ray.
The unique museum is dedicated to the 6,000-year history of bread as an indispensable basis of human culture and civilisation.
