Museum zu Allerheiligen

The Museum zu Allerheiligen is located in the middle of the picturesque historic center of Schaffhausen. In the former Benedictine monastery of Allerheiligen, alongside artifacts from the monastery’s past, the museum brings together archaeology and cultural history, a significant collection of antiquities, an art collection with works by Cranach, Hodler, Val¬otton, Otto Dix, and Adolf Dietrich, as well as a natural history collection. The museum cafe—with the idyllic Pfalzhof open in the summer—is the perfect place for a relaxing break. The cathedral, cloister, and monastery garden are open to the public during the day.
