August Kestner (1777-1853) was a lawyer, diplomat and art collector. After his death his collection was donated to the city and this museum is the result. Split into four main sections focusing mainly on pre-20th-century art and crafts back to ancient Egypt, of note are the bizarre shrine to Kester himself and a room full of plastic consumer goods from the 1950s and 1960s that already look as ancient as the pyradmids themselves.
