    Fabulous. Contemporary art usually goes right over my head but that wasn't a big piece of the…read moredisplays here when I visited Strasbourg in November 2021. Modern art, yes. Political art, not so much. My visit started with a large exhibit explaining the history and origin of the French national anthem, La Marseillaise. Me, I love a rounding rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. When done properly, it gives me goosebumps. So to have this opportunity to learn about this song was interesting and enjoyable. From the "Chant de Guerre" that was the battle hymn for the Army of the Rhine and adapted to become Chant des Marsellois and subsequently La Marseillaise. From 1792 and through the 19th and 20th centuries, it represented a rallying hymn in the struggles for freedom. It was even taken up by Chinese students demonstrating in Tiananmen Square in 1989. Other exhibits included sculptures and art pieces and portraits, many of them absolutely interesting. I particularly enjoyed "Three Elements" (1925) by Vasilly Kandinsky and bought a print of it in the gift shop. Masks are required throughout the museum and QR codes were checked at entry. The cloakroom is currently closed. Expect to spend at least 90 minutes touring the art. [Review 16448 overall - 82 in France - 1956 of 2021.]

    Nice museum with an interesting mix of modern and contemporary art. Some pieces were really…read moreimpressive and unique, though a few exhibits felt a bit underwhelming. The space is well organized and easy to walk through, and it wasn't too crowded which made it more enjoyable. Worth a visit if you're into modern art.

    I'll start off by saying the museum itself was beautiful and impressive, from the detailed…read moreapartments recreating the Palatinate era to the archaeology collection. I was excited when I saw it included was a children's museum (called Museum of Pedagogy), since I have a five-year-old in tow. Then, the weirdest thing happened. I would ask someone in the museum where the children's museum was (I showed them the words on my phone since I don't speak German) and they would ultimately point me to another end of the museum. So I'd go from one person to another to another, and ultimately ended up in circles. At one point, a staffer said, "This is a MUSEUM. We don't have kids stuff." I left frustrated and ultimately perplexed about the existence of this mysterious children's museum that was depicted on the maps and museum signs.

    I'm a lover of museums so this was an absolute must to stop by. But you don't have to be in love…read morewith art or museums to enjoy your time here (though fair warning, you might leave as one). Inside a a beautiful courtyard that's brilliantly designed and filled with statues and greenery, you're treated to a peaceful and royal aesthetic before you even walk inside. Like most museums, you'll be able to take a self guided tour, so if you don't know anything about art, this will guide you. Everyone is sure to find something they like since the small museum is filled with a diversity of time periods and styles. The atmosphere here is so casual and simple that it makes the perfect break from exploring the city. (Or a great cover from the rain like I had to use).
