the treasure chamber by Waginger See
The art period between the mid-16th and the mid-18th centuries produced buildings such as the Palace of Versailles, Salzburg Cathedral and the Zwinger in Dresden. But even when it came to the smaller things in daily life and in art, the Baroque was a time filled with creative energy. You can now browse some of these artworks at the Strandkurhaus in Waging am See.
In 2006, the Baroque Museum run by the Sebastian Schuhbeck Foundation at the Strandkurhaus was opened right next to the Waginger See. It houses one of the most significant collections of Baroque art between Salzburg and Munich, with approximately 250 pieces accessible to the general public.
On display in 10 rooms on an exhibition area of over 400 m² are items drawn from noble families, the church and farms, many of these produced by acclaimed painters and sculptors. Allow your mind to travel back to a time when art and beauty were conceived and presented in very different ways from today...
