Fashion and Accessories

The collection of historical clothing is distinguished by numerous pieces from the 16th and 17th centuries, early testimonies to courtly fashion, which only a few museums in the world possess in comparable form. Among these rare treasures are the magnificent Renaissance robes from the crypt of the counts Palatine in Lauingen.
Equally outstanding is the collection of aristocratic, bourgeois and peasant clothing along with the corresponding accessories from the 18th and 19th centuries. Extravagant shoes, bags and fans from five centuries showcase the fascinating world of fashionable accessories.
