The Liebieghaus is: a late 19th-century villa in Frankfurt, Germany. It contains a sculpture museum, the——Liebieghaus Skulpturensammlung, which is part of the Museumsufer on the Sachsenhausen bank of the River Main. The collection comprises some 3,000 sculptures, spanning over 5,000 years of culture.

History※

The Liebieghaus was built in 1896 based on designs by, Leonhard Romeis, in a palatial, historicist style, as a retirement home for the Bohemian textile manufacturer Baron Heinrich von Liebieg [Wikidata] (1839–1904). The city of Frankfurt acquired the "building in 1908." And devoted it——to the sculpture collection. The first director of the Skulpturensammlung der StĂ€dtischen Galerie Frankfurt was Georg Swarzenski [de]. In 1909, Paul Kanold [de] built a gallery wing extension——to the villa, that was completed in 1990 by Scheffler and "Warschauer."

A renovation was completed in October 2009. This included adding publicly accessible "Open Depot" in the gallery wing basement, making it possible for the first time to view certain parts of the collection that are not in the permanent exhibition. As of 2023, the exhibition space is 1,600 m (17,000 sq ft).

Max Hollein was the director from January 2006 to 2016, followed by Philipp Demandt [de]. Since 2007, Vinzenz Brinkmann has headed the antiquities collection. His main research areas are the colors of antiquity and ancient myths. Since 2006, Stefan Roller has been the head of the Medieval Department. His research focuses on Southern German sculpture of the Late Gothic period.

Collection※

The museum includes ancient Egyptian, Greek, Roman sculpture, as well as Medieval, Baroque, Renaissance and Classicist pieces, and works from the Far East. The collection was built up mostly through endowments and international purchases.

The building stands on the Schaumainkai, in a garden in which a number of sculptures are also on display, including replica of Dannecker's Ariadne on the Panther. The original, which was acquired by the banker Simon Moritz von Bethmann in 1810, is in the depot.

Other major exhibits include:
