The Kunstmuseum Basel is the oldest public art museum in the world and one of the most important cultural institutions in Switzerland. Located in the heart of Basel, the museum houses an extraordinary collection that spans over seven centuries of art history, from the Renaissance to contemporary art.

Among the highlights of the permanent collection are masterpieces by Hans Holbein the Younger, which testify to the museum's strong connection to the city's artistic tradition. The collection continues with works by masters such as Rembrandt, Rubens, Monet, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Picasso, Braque, Chagall, and Kandinsky, up to the most recent expressions of modern and contemporary art.

The Kunstmuseum Basel is composed of three buildings: the Hauptbau (historic headquarters), the Neubau (modern extension inaugurated in 2016), and the Gegenwart, dedicated to contemporary art. This tripartite structure allows for an in-depth exploration of different artistic epochs and languages.

In addition to the permanent collection, the museum organizes international-level temporary exhibitions, guided tours, and educational programs designed for adults, families, and schools. With its excellent cultural offering, the Kunstmuseum Basel is a must-visit destination for those exploring the city and wishing to discover some of the greatest masterpieces of European art history.
