The Bauhaus Museum commemorates the founding of the Bauhaus School in 1919 by Walter Gropius, which revolutionized modern design by bringing together art, craft, and architecture. It is the birthplace of this influential movement that shaped 20th-century aesthetics, with collections that showcase innovations in furniture and typography.
Spring (April to June) or autumn (September to October) are ideal thanks to pleasant weather and fewer crowds than in summer. Choose weekday mornings to avoid peak visitor times and enjoy a quieter experience.
