Museum Villa Stuck

Home of the master painter

At home with a master painter: Franz von Stuck’s villa on Prinzregentenstrasse in Munich is one of the most important artist’s residences in Europe.

In October 2025, the Museum Villa Stuck reopened after extensive renovation work with two new special exhibitions.

The Künstlerhaus, as a total work of art, will be reopening with contemporary works from pop art, performance art and painting: the exhibition ‘Utopia. Chicks on Speed’ (October 18, 2025 - March 1, 2026) is a journey through the past and future of the influential art collective, which has enjoyed international renown since its founding at the Munich Art Academy 30 years ago and collaboratively and radically combines art, music, performance, fashion and activism. At the same time, ‘Louise Giovanelli. A Song of Ascents’ (October 18, 2025 - March 15, 2026) offers a glimpse into the work of a leading figure in young British painting, whose vibrant paintings oscillate between promise and abyss with their stage sets, glamour and collective rituals.

As part of the renovation, the building's technical systems were updated, the façades and architectural sculptures were given a fresh coat of paint, and the historic rooms were refurbished with new furnishings, new hanging arrangements and new works. The newly constructed entrance on Ismaninger Straße will make it possible to access the museum barrier-free via the expanded artists' garden in the future.

Franz von Stuck designed his home at the end of the 19th century as a free-standing work of art, somewhere between classical design and art nouveau with a few references the antique style. The artist’s villa is now a museum run by the city of Munich. All of the areas in this impressive building are in a dialogue, making the Villa Stuck at Bogenhausen a one-of-a-kind example of artistic living.

As well as the historic studio and living quarters, the enchanting artist’s garden and paintings by Stuck himself, the museum regularly hosts temporary art exhibitions, ranging from the 19th century to modern day.
