The Sammlung Oskar Reinhart "Am Römerholz" is an art museum situated in the Swiss city of Winterthur. The museum is located in the former residence of Oskar Reinhart, a prominent art collector who lived from 1885 to 1965. Reinhart's extensive collection of art is housed in this museum, providing visitors with a unique opportunity to explore his diverse and rich collection.

Architecture of the Museum

The museum is composed of a villa and a gallery building, both of which were designed by the architect Maurice Turrettini. The villa was originally built between 1915 and 1918 for the industrialist Jakob Heinrich Ziegler-Sulzer. In 1924, Oskar Reinhart purchased the house and added a gallery to it the following year. This combination of residential and gallery spaces provides a unique setting for the display of the art collection.

Collection Overview

The museum's collection comprises approximately 200 works, offering a comprehensive overview of the highlights of European painting from the 14th to the early 20th century. The collection is varied, featuring not only paintings but also sculptures, drawings, and tapestries. The focus of the collection is on impressionism, with particular emphasis on the works of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Édouard Manet, and Paul Cézanne.
