Ludwig Collection in Bamberg

In 1994, a "cooperation agreement“ was signed between the City of Bamberg and Irene und Peter Ludwig. The outstanding faïence and porcelain holdings of the Ludwig Collection were given as a permanent loan to the City of Bamberg and have been exhibited since 1995 in the "Old Bridge Town Hall“, a municipal institution. The Baroque building is exemplary for the entire townscape. In addition to its function as a museum, the building is used for official representative purposes, with its Rococo hall serving for receptions.

The collection of approximately 300 works of art provides an exquisite range of Meissen porcelain, as well as Strassbourg faïence and a variety of objects from various other manufacturers.
