Introducing the Musée Unterlinden’s new iPhone app!
Work continues on the museum’s renovation and expansion project until december 2015. As part of the current phase of this project, the museum’s collections of art from the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance have been temporarily reinstalled on its first floor and at the Dominican church, just steps from the museum. The archaeology galleries, the modern and contemporary art collection, and the wine cellar will remain closed to the public for the duration of the project.
