You get in for free with Swiss pass. They have 3 floors, Pablo picassso, one other artist, and one for mixed artists. They have a wide variety of paintings and in is fun to roam around there!

This small museum is filled with an amazing collection of Picassos - I don't recall ever seeing so many together and 125 works by Paul Klee, a room full of Chagall paintings and sketches that Chagall gave to Mr. Rosengart ( including the artists palette!), and many more modern artists such as Braque, Leger, Modigliani. It was such a treat and so interesting to know that this was one family's collection, now gifted to the city of Lucerne and all who visit there.

Beautiful private collection of Picasso artwork, impressionist and a Swiss artist (Bree). Perfect size to soak in the beauty and understand the progression. Easy to navigate and only takes a couple hours to get through all exhibits at a leisurely pace.

One thing I did not care for is the use of cell phone and QR code to pull up PDF of text of artists and work. I did not want to read on my phone and walk and stop and read, etc. This needs an audio tour with the art to appreciate it fully. The video at the end was wonderful and would have been nice to see at the start, but I stumbled into the conference room and happen to see it playing while I was resting.

Also, this is not a place if you have bad knees. All furniture is ultra low profile, being about 10 inches off the floor. Impossible to sit or get up. I rested on a cut out in the wall before finding a decent chair on the top floor.

The video presentation has a lot of information on Picasso. The relationship between the Rosengart.

Great ticket discount for students and friendly staff. The collection is large but in order to read more about the works you need to scan a QR code and read it on your phone. Overall recommendable for a rainy day activity in Lucerne.

On our family vacation from the US my amazing wife (we’re both lovers of modern art) found this great modern museum a block from our hotel. This a must see small but mighty museum is full of works laid out beautifully, of primarily Picasso & Klee but also Moro, Monet, Cezanne, Kandinsky and more. This was a incredible treat and as I wrote in the guest book that Mrs Rosengart reads every day - “An unbelievably large collection!! So very well presented”

Mrs Rosengart I hope your reading this ????

Friendly reception with some first pieces of information about the museum. As the other reviewers state, this is a small museum, actually it is the collection of an art dealer and her daughter - so it reflects their taste. The artists, many Picasso and Klee, are represented with a very intriguing selection of paintings and drawings that shows the band width of the artists. So even if you are not familiar with art of that time period you might discover something that captures your interest. In my case, I was not a fan of Klee previously, but I found out that the artist had a far wider repertoire and actually quite some pictures appealed to me a lot.
Spend the half hour to watch the movie in the boardroom on the first floor (yes, the building was a bank). It gives you some personal glimpses on why some pieces are in the collection.
