Experience Baroque Highlights at the Augustinermuseum
This tour through the Augustinermuseum opens the view into an art world where sacredness, representation, and sensual splendor closely intertwine. On Sunday, July 19, 2026, the tour will take place from 11:00 to 12:00 and will showcase masterpieces of the Baroque and Rococo, making it visible how sculpture, painting, and spatial staging merge into an impressive art experience.
When Art Transforms Spaces
The tour connects sacred and profane art and directs the gaze to the organ façade of the Welte organ, to sculptures by Christian Wentzinger, and to the abundance of Baroque imagery. Especially in the Augustinermuseum, this contemplation of works unfolds in an exhibition atmosphere that brings together historical substance and modern museum education.
Between Pathos, Movement, and Rich Detail
Baroque art loves the dramatic: curved lines, moving figures, splendid surfaces, and a composition that guides the eye. In the tour, this art direction is not presented as a distant epoch but as a living form of cultural experience, ranging from altar paintings to sculptural works.
The Augustinermuseum as a Place of Art Education
The Augustinermuseum is regarded as a modern, barrier-free, and interactive cultural venue in Freiburg. The tour takes place in the House of the Graphic Collection; the meeting point is the foyer at Salzstraße 32/34. Admission to the museum is as much a part of the visit as the opportunity to connect art history with immediate observation.
