The Nietzsche-Haus is a house in Sils Maria in the Engadin region of Switzerland, where the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche lived during the summers of 1881 and from 1883 to 1888. Nietzsche's visits Friedrich Nietzsche rented a modest room in the Durisch family's house in the heart of Sils Maria for seven summers (1881 and 1883–88). The nearly 200-year-old house was owned by the Durisch family and continued to be privately owned for many years after Nietzsche's visits. Museum In 1958 the house was sold to the "Nietzsche House Sils-Maria Foundation", which had it renovated and opened a museum there on 25 August 1960, the 60th anniversary of Nietzsche's death.

Kunstmuseum Basel
The Kunstmuseum Basel houses the oldest public art collection in the world and is generally considered to be the most important museum of art in Switzerland. It is listed as a heritage site of national significance. Its lineage extends back to the Amerbach Cabinet, which included a collection of works by Hans Holbein purchased by the city of Basel and the University of Basel in 1661, which made it the first municipally owned and therefore open to the public museum in the world. Its collection is distinguished by an impressively wide historic span, from the early 15th century up to the immediate present. Its various areas of emphasis give it international standing as one of the most significant museums of its kind. These encompass: paintings and drawings by artists active in the Upper Rhine region between 1400 and 1600, and on the art of the 19th to 21st centuries. Collection The Kunstmuseum possesses the largest collection of works by the Holbein family. Further examples of Rena ...
