Bauhaus traces and hand weaving art in a special museum night

The Long Night of Museums brings the Margaretha-Reichardt-Haus in Erfurt into an intense art experience on May 29, 2026, between Bauhaus history, living culture, and vibrant workshop tradition. The residential and weaving house of the Erfurt Bauhaus artist Margaretha Reichardt, built in 1939, has been a technical monument since 1987 and has been part of the Angermuseum since 1992 as a branch.

A house as a workspace of modernity

Margaretha Reichardt studied at the Bauhaus Dessau from 1926 and operated a hand weaving workshop since 1933, where she trained over 50 weavers. The workshop in the basement houses functional hand looms; the art of hand weaving is still taught at them today. Thus, the historical site becomes a vibrant learning and experience space for art, design, and cultural education.

Spatial effect, material, and aesthetic experience

Visitors experience the tension between original preserved living spaces and the visible work on the looms in the Margaretha-Reichardt-Haus. It is precisely this connection of everyday history, materiality, and form awareness that adds to the charm of the house. Anyone who wants to understand the Bauhaus not just as a style, but as an attitude will find here an impressive place for observation of work.
