General adult admission is around CHF 25, but entry is free if you have the Swiss Museum Pass or the Swiss Travel Pass. They also offer reduced rates for students and seniors with valid ID.

To truly enjoy the masterpieces without rushing, we recommend setting aside 90 minutes to 2 hours. This will allow you to appreciate the extensive Picasso collection and the more than 125 works by Paul Klee at a relaxed pace.

Its importance lies in the fact that it was the private collection of Siegfried Rosengart, a close friend of Pablo Picasso. The museum houses a unique selection of classical Impressionism and Modernism, distinguished by the intimacy and quality of the works gathered by the family.

To avoid the crowds, the best time to visit is right at opening in the morning or after 15:00. Weekdays are usually much quieter than weekends, especially outside the peak summer season.

Yes, the Rosengart Collection is fully adapted and accessible for wheelchairs, with elevators providing access to all exhibition floors. The building, a former headquarters of the Swiss National Bank, has been modernized to ensure comfort for everyone.

Given its central location, you are less than a 5-minute walk from the iconic Chapel Bridge and Lake Lucerne. You can also visit the impressive Culture and Convention Centre (KKL), which is right next door.

You must leave large bags and backpacks in the lockers, which require a deposit coin, so bring some loose cash. We strongly suggest using a good audio guide to understand the story behind the friendship between the collector and the artists.
