3 museums in one location, all three well presented with interesting artifacts and artwork. In particular, the archeological museum is quite rich with excellent informative displays.

There are 3 museums in the Rohan Palace, the most interesting is the archeological one, and there are very good audio-guides . But you must be careful about the closing hours, because they kick you out , very rude behaviour, unbelievable rude.

We did not visit the museums, but we really enjoyed admiring the exterior views of the palace! A great example of great, French architecture! It is located right next to the Notre Dame Cathedral.

This is a lovely building with three somewhat smallish museums inside on the three different floors. You can buy a ticket for one or all but watch what the ticket desk clerk gives you as she was fairly snotty when we went through. Pick up an audioguide inside your preferred museum and enjoy the quiet. These places are seriously empty... More

The Palais Rohan actually includes three museums - two types of art gallery (Fine Arts and Decorative Arts) and an Archaeology museum - on the three different levels of the building. The building itself is, as the name suggests, a former palace and is absolutely breathtaking, well worth the visit even if you are disgusted to the point of vomiting... More

The paintings are quiet old and for people who love old paintings, this is a place to go to in Strasbourg. They have a good collection.

This site offers a lot to the visitors. You can admire the pieces of the collections, which are really interesting. Another positive is the fact that is located in a short distance from other city landmarks.

The three museums are for the "Beaux arts", and decorative arts and archaeology. The first two were partly under works. The decorative arts part was the most impressive, walking through a series of authentic rooms of the royalty who lived there at the time. The archaeological museum is very extensive, however its in the basement and many exhibits aren't that... More

As our German neighbours destroyed much of Strasbourg's painting collection during the French -Prussian war of 1870/71 but thereafter occupied Elsass for30 years (it went back to France following Germany's debacle in 1918), they had to refurbish the collection... Fortunately enough the man whose mission it was to restablish Strasbourg's museum of Fine arts was great Wilhelm von Bode, a... More
