Jean- Paul Museum is dedicate to the lives and art of a German writer and a poet who lived here in the 19th century. The museum houses what is probably the most important private collection of Jean Paul, donated by Dr. Philip Hausser. In 1980 the museum was opened under the direction of director Dr. Manfred Eger set up. The city of Bayreuth was able to expand it significantly in 1994 and since then has acquired other valuable manuscripts by Jean Paul and documents on his life and work.
