  • 5/5 Olivier D. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) To visit absolutely if one is interested in the art and in particular in the German new art. The villas in the area are splendid. A noble and tranquil atmosphere emerges from the places. Above all, open the door of the Russian Orthodox chapel that Tsar Nicholas II built on the hill. He spent his holidays in the surroundings because his wife was a princess of Hesse Darmstadt. (Original) A visiter absolument si on s'intéresse à l'art et en particulier à l'art nouveau allemand. Les villas du quartier sont splendides. Une atmosphère noble et tranquille se dégage des lieux. Surtout ouvrez la porte de la chapelle orthodoxe russe que le tsar Nicolas II a fait bâtir sur la colline. Il passait ses vacances dans les environs car son épouse était une princesse de Hesse Darmstadt.

    An important landmark in Darmstadt. Lovely place to visit. Views from the Hochzeitsturm are great. The Russian church, the tree plantation with lovely sculptures and the cafe, all are great.

    This is a beautiful building, stunning jugendstil architecture, and the surrounding is just as breathtaking. Important to know that the museum itself, inside, offers a very small exhibition, consists of one room and a small foyer, so it is maybe 20min visit, even if you read the texts...on the other hand, it only costs 3 euro. Exhibition wise, I suggest to visit the jugendstil department at the hessische landesmuseum

    Not a big entry fee (3€) but nothing much to see except the awesome view of whole of Darmstadt from the top floor of the wedding tower. The view maked the fee worth it

    First of all,the artists' colony was founded in 1899 by Ernest Ludwig,Grand Duke of Hesse.Also,he is expressionist painter.Secondly,the artists' goal was to be the development of modern and forward-looking forms of construction and living.Finally,The Darmstadt Artists' Colony refers both to a group of Judgenstil artists as well as to the buildings in Mathildenhöhe in Darmstadt in which these artists lived and worked.This place is a treasure for artistic people and art lovers...

    (Translated by Google) If Art Nouveau is an art style to your taste, Museum Artists' Colony is a "must" for you. The selected works by famous art nouveau artists such as Olbrich, Christiansen or Peter Behrens are fascinating evidence of a utopian era at the turn of the century. Highly recommended! (Original) Wenn der Jugendstil ein Kunst-Stil nach Ihrem Geschmack ist, Museum Künstlerkolonie ist ein "Muss" für Sie.
