The Rote Burg is a historic residential building located in Aachen, specifically at Büchel, house number 14. It holds significant historical value and is recognized as a monument in the city of Aachen's monument list. This makes it a point of interest for tourists who are keen on exploring the rich history of Aachen.
Origins and Ownership of Rote Burg
The Rote Burg has a rich history dating back to the mid-15th century. It was originally owned by the Segraedt family, a family of Aachen aldermen who played a significant role in the city's governance during the 15th and 16th centuries, providing several mayors of the Free City of Aachen. This historical background adds to the cultural and historical significance of the building.
Rote Burg as Büchel-Museum
In 2018, the Rote Burg underwent a transformation and became a museum for graphics and art from the 19th century to modern times. The museum, known as the Büchel-Museum, opened with an exhibition featuring about 200 works by the Bohemian painter and graphic artist Emil Orlik. This makes the museum a must-visit for art enthusiasts and those interested in graphic art from the 19th century onwards.
