Instead of the old bookstore Chapter, just opposite the famous house of the Heads, this museum dedicated to Hansi was inaugurated at the end of November 2015. For memory, Hansi (alias Jean-Jacques Waltz) is a famous illustrator and caricaturist colmarien. The museum is designed like an authentic Alsatian village, with cobbled streets, arched porch and main square. Surmounted of a large stained glass reproducing a drawing of Hansi, a wide staircase out of wooden gives access to space muséal located on the first floor. The scenography of the places makes discover multiple original works of Hansi to the access of a ludic course which reveals drawings of childhood, watercolours and advertising posters, but also of the Alsatian tableware and stamped derived products of time. At the end of your visit, you will be able to make some shopping in the shop of the museum located at the ground floor. It abounds in regional produce: fine wines, artisanal preserves and foie gras, gingerbread in multiple forms, without forgetting a very interesting choice of works on Hansi and Alsace! To also note: the Hansi museum can be privatized in the setting of business events.
