Art and Culture on the Elbe and Labe

Welcome to the museum landscape of the Elbe-Labe Region. We would hereby like to invite you on excursions along the banks of a richly historical river on both sides of the Saxon-Czech border.

About 100 museums await discovery along with their histories and collections. The latter provide insight into collecting passions and municipal initiatives, natural history and handicrafts, building traditions and tastes in art. Visitors will also learn about rulers, aristocratic families and artists, alchemists, master chair builders and clockmakers. Even the museum buildings themselves are highly informative testimonies to the region’s cultural, intellectual and economic history.

Every museum is represented here with a uniformly designed page of its own offering information on the programme, opening hours, admission fees and access for the disabled. Tips on public transport, general maps and site plans are also included to aid you in planning your museum tour. Choose the museum(s) you would like to visit and use the "Travel Planner" feature to create your own personal travel guide.

We wish you a great trip with lots of suspenseful discoveries!
