Das Museum ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.

A very nice museum not too large. It’s worth a visit for two things. The wood sculpture collection by Riemenschneider and Hermitage of Saint Bruno, the life’s work of an unnamed Carthusian monk. There is something to Riemenschneider’s sculpture, the hands and subtle details in expression. Lighting and where you stand to view the sculpture is also important. On Sunday it’s 1 euro!

In der Ferienzeit gibt es ein Rätzel für die Kinder. Der Preis ist auch fair.
