Welcome to the Keramikmuseum Scheibbs

On exhibit are 2,000 ceramic objects from the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods: expressive pieces of ceramic art of Tonindustrie Scheibbs (1923 - 1933) and Scheibbser Keramik (since 1937).

 

The Hottenroth Collection

Since 1993 the Hottenroths have been collecting the works of Scheibbser Keramik factory which they found worldwide. The collection presently contains nearly 2,500 objects and is now publicly accessible in the new Keramikmuseum Scheibbs.

The museum building was originally built as a metal foundry, later housing the ceramic production from 1924 to 2004. The exhibited objects were produced here!

In 2006 the Museumsverein Scheibbs (Museum Association Scheibbs) was founded. The association renovated the building with the kind support of the Lower Austrian government, the city of Scheibbs, and private sponsors. It is now in charge of the operation of the museum.
