Museum Ulm
Museum Ulm is an art, archaeology, urban, and cultural history museum in Ulm, Germany. Founded in 1924, it connects prehistoric finds with modern art. Its displays range from Upper Paleolithic and Neolithic objects to late Gothic works from the Ulm School. The recorded features include wheelchair accessibility for visitors.
The collection continues into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, with works by Paul Klee, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and Franz Marc. Kurt Fried’s collection adds works by Frank Stella, Mark Rothko, and Roy Lichtenstein. Temporary exhibitions focus on European and American art created after 1945, extending the museum’s scope beyond its permanent holdings. The Friends of the Ulm Museum began supporting scientific work and exhibitions in 1982.
At its prehistoric centre, the lion-man statuette combines a human body with a lion’s head and limbs. More than 300 fragments form the figure. A Neanderthal thigh bone also records the species in Baden-Württemberg.
