You want to do more?

The Wiesbaden City Museum Foundation (founded in 2016) is a non-profit foundation with legal capacity under public law. As a sponsor, it enables the ongoing operation of the sam - Stadtmuseum am Markt and the research, preservation and communication of the Nassau Antiquities Collection (SNA) as well as the urban and cultural history collections. The foundation thus has an identity-creating function for the city and the region without any alternative. It fulfills its tasks primarily through annual contributions from the state capital of Wiesbaden, voluntary admission fees, third-party funds and donations.

Do you think our work is important and would you like to support the foundation (financially)?
