Museum Ulm

The Museum Ulm, founded in 1924, is a museum for art, archeology, urban and cultural history in Ulm, Germany.Exhibits range from prehistoric and early archaeological finds of the Ulm region to Late Gothic and Renaissance paintings and sculptures made in Ulm and Upper Swabia. Collections of 16th- to 19th-century artisan works by Ulm's handicraft guilds are also presented. Conservator and university professor Julius Baum became the museum’s founding director and its first art historian on 1 April 1924. According to his successor Erwin Treu, "this started the real history" as "an institute emerged from a junk room".
