About Haus der Kunst Baden

The Haus der Kunst is a neoclassical villa at Kaiser-Franz-Ring 7 in Baden, where the town presents changing exhibitions and concerts. What you see or hear there depends on the current programme of the culture department.

What takes place in the house

  • Exhibitions: the current ones each run for one to three weeks, mostly solo shows by artists or guest appearances by galleries
  • Concerts: chamber music, concert series such as the Badener Sonntagsmusiken and the "FrauenNote" series, plus evenings of jazz or baroque music
  • Fixed opening hours are only given by the town for the duration of an exhibition, so check the programme before your visit

A villa with a history

The house was built in 1818/19 by Pietro Nobile for State Councillor Josef von Hudelist; for a long time it was wrongly considered a work by Joseph Kornhäusel. It was later called Villa Löwenstein. In 1914 a casino disguised as "Kursaalspiele" operated here for a few months until the authorities closed it in July. In 1917 Emperor Karl I occasionally received audiences in the house, in 1925 the town bought it, and between the wars it housed the spa administration. After the Second World War it was occupied by the Red Army. In 1956 the painting school restored the run-down building, and since June 1957 it has been the Haus der Kunst.
