Welcome to the website of the
EDWIN SCHARFF MUSEUM

During the great social and artistic upheavals around 1900, one genre took on a whole new significance: modern dance, which developed into an independent artistic discipline. Under the heading “Dance becomes art”, the Edwin Scharff Museum highlights the many facets of artistic dance in two exhibitions. The first deals with the preconditions and beginnings in the period from 1892 to around 1914.

Where wood shavings fall and where you juggle with words. Where your music plays and where you do something good for others – this is where your personal journey begins. Discover what YOU are able to do. Listen to yourself and to what your inner voice is telling you, in order to experience what each activity feels like. The different hands-on stations guide you through the vast country of possibilities.
