Museum Villa Stuck

The classics live on at Museum Villa Stuck

JUNGENSTIL: Von Stuck's house is a classic of Munich's Art Nouveau era..

This villa was once the home of Franz von Stuck, one of Munich’s great master artists of the Jungenstil (Art Nouveau) era.

Much of Stuck’s artwork is on display but perhaps the greatest piece of art is the villa itself, built in 1898. Stuck did a fine job of kitting out the place with wood-panelled walls and self-made furniture.

The museum has recently undergone a major renovation, and it’s now possible to see Stuck’s entire private domain, living rooms and a statue-filled garden.

SEXY: Von Stuck's controversial and decadant Die Sunde (The Sin).

Sinfully good

Stuck’s most popular paintings on display have got to be the Wächter des Paradieses (Guards of Paradise) and Die Sunde (The Sin). Works from modern artists and Stuck’s Jungenstil contemporaries are also on display. Try to go on a Sunday when you won’t pay a dime for entry.
