Monuments, paintings and sculptures

When a museum displays noteworthy exhibits dating from the Stone Age to the present day it most certainly deserves its first class image. The Landesmuseum, located in the former "Kurfürstenkaserne" with its characteristic Golden Horse on the roof, is one of the oldest museums in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The collections are continuously expanded upon, with new valuable exhibits being added dating back to Roman times, the Middle Ages, or baroque. Even the most seasoned of regular visitors always finds something new, be it Byzantine coins or Picasso's portrait.
