Expert art educators highlight selected masterpieces and reveal how people from different eras expressed beauty, power, faith, and emotions in stone, bronze, wood, or ivory. Each guided tour highlights specific aspects and invites you to take a closer look at both familiar and surprising works. Details that might easily go unnoticed during a self-guided tour come to life: the posture of a figure, the effect of a material, the story behind a face, or the meaning of a symbol. The result is a varied tour that conveys art-historical knowledge in an accessible way while leaving room for wonder. The Masterpieces Tour is particularly well-suited for anyone discovering the Liebieghaus for the first time or wishing to experience the collection from a new perspective. Amid the garden, the villa, and the sculptures, a cultural experience unfolds that enriches Frankfurt’s museum landscape in a special way.
The Liebieghaus offers an impressive introduction to one of Germany’s most significant sculpture collections. In the historic villa on the Museumsufer, works of art spanning nearly 5,000 years of cultural history come together: from antiquity through the Middle Ages to the modern era.
