Between Rococo and Present

The Schaezlerpalais is one of the most significant historical art venues in Augsburg. The magnificent Rococo hall, the German Baroque Gallery, and the Graphic Collection create an environment where artistic spatial effects and museum education connect impressively. Entering the exhibition situation at the Palais, one experiences not only painting but also an architectural art experience with strong historical resonance.

The Paintings as a Reflection of Social Orders

The tour considers the imagery of the Baroque period not as a distant past, but as a commentary on current debates. How are women portrayed, what role models shape the iconography, and what power relations are reflected in portraits, allegories, and religious scenes? It is precisely here that the appeal of this exhibition unfolds: art history becomes cultural education, work analysis becomes social reflection.

A Place with Museum Character and Historical Depth

The Schaezlerpalais houses the German Baroque Gallery and other collection areas; at the same time, it is itself part of the experience as a historical building. The museum complex is well-connected to public transport, located on Maximilianstraße, and is not fully accessible due to its historical structure. However, an elevator has been available since December 2022 to provide access to the first and second exhibition floors for wheelchair users and people with reduced mobility.
