Excellent sculptures (from the early Middle Ages to the 19th century) meet old armour, tableware and furniture; ethnological and religious objects are displayed next to china from Nymphenburg. This well-organised exhibition is housed in a marvellous fin-de-siècle building (1894-99). The pride of the museum, which boasts a collection of over 180,000 objects, is the exhibition of Christmas cribs - the biggest collection of its kind in the country.
