Musée Unterlinden

Regarding catering, we work with several partner caterers. You may also choose to hire a caterer of your choice. In that case, a prior site visit will need to be arranged with them in order to anticipate the venue’s logistical constraints.

In terms of scheduling, the ‘La Piscine’ hall is available from 8:00 a.m. on the day of the wedding. The Cloister and the Pommarium courtyard are accessible from 6:30 p.m., when the museum closes. All events must end no later than 3:00 a.m.

We are not able to provide our availability. We invite you to contact us to check open dates in real time.

No, we are unable to offer a fixed price. The cost depends on several factors, including the space(s) rented, the event end time, the number of guests, and other considerations.

A security deposit of €2,000 is required and must be provided at the time of booking. No reservation can be confirmed before the deposit is received.

A reservation will be considered final only after the signed quotation is returned with the mention ‘approved,’ along with a 30% deposit of the quoted amount. This deposit must be paid to the museum at the time of signing the quotation. The deposit already paid will be deducted from the final invoice. The remaining balance must be paid no later than 7 days before the event. The museum reserves the right to cancel the event if payment is not made within this timeframe.

By making a reservation, you agree to the general terms and conditions of sale and the specifications document.

Yes, the maximum permitted noise levels inside rental properties are 80dB.

The client will be responsible for organising and supervising the cloakroom. Clothes racks can be provided for the client if required (please specify this during our discussions).

Floral decorations are permitted provided they are placed on furniture (sideboards, tables, counters, etc.). Smoking, candles, cake fountains and all pyrotechnic materials are strictly prohibited within the museum and in the surrounding area. 

There are free public car parks (e.g. Lacarre Car Park) and pay-and-display car parks located near the museum. Buses can drop off guests as close as possible to the museum and park in the designated spaces.

With the exception of the catering van and the bride and groom’s vehicle, parking on Place Unterlinden during the event is strictly prohibited.

However, delivery of equipment is permitted via the museum’s main entrance between 6.00 pm and 11.00 am (time-limited and subject to prior arrangement).

Between 11.01 am and 5.59 pm, access to the square is subject to prior authorisation from Colmar Town Hall. During the Christmas or Easter markets and street fairs, access to Place Unterlinden is also subject to prior authorisation from Colmar Town Hall.

Any equipment left on site before or after the hire period remains the sole responsibility of the client. Deliveries made before or after the event are subject to prior agreement setting out the nature, packaging, weight and volume of the items, as well as the delivery times. The client must collect the equipment immediately after use at the end of the event.

The tidying away of equipment (sound system, catering, etc.) and the cleaning of the spaces must be carried out immediately upon completion of the service. In the event of the hire of multiple spaces, the tidying and cleaning of the first space used must take place immediately after the guests have left it.

When delivering equipment to the ‘La Piscine’ room, trolleys and any pallet trucks must not be used on the wooden floor but must remain solely on the tiled floor to prevent any damage.
