Richard-Wagner-Museum in the Wahnfried House

The new planning measures leave the villa's historical park untouched and thus keep open the possibility of a careful and gradual development with respect to its historical condition.

A new garden area will be designed as an extension of the exhibition building and will be closely connected to it with regard to function and materiality. A contemplative, shady garden will be created under the large existing trees, and use ornamental foliage plants as a vegetative model. Small spaces with seating can also be used for temporary outdoor exhibitions and provide a view of the adjacent park.
