Museums in Stade

The museums of Stade could not be any more distinctive. Whether it’s contemporary art in the Kunsthaus, the history of the Hanseatic era in the Schwedenspeicher or traditional artefacts from the region in the Freilichtmuseum on Stade’s island: the museums in the town offer everything your heart desires. Things get maritime in the hold of the museum ship “Greundiek”. The maritime ambassador of the Hanseatic city of Stade is over 70 years old and has an exciting story to tell. The Baumhausmuseum can be described as “small but mighty”. In addition to the exhibition of selected collector’s items, the building itself has also played an important part in Stade’s history. Still thirsty for knowledge? There are a number of extraordinary museums and exhibitions to discover outside the old town centre, too.
