This is a small museums with stairs access to different floors. I only realised that the others visitor had to leave their bags at the desk near the entrance. No one stopped me walking with my small backpack around, but I felt weird. Nevertheless, it was a pleasant experience.

It's only temporary exhibitions, so of course some will resonate more than others. The biggest issue is the tiny size - comics are huddled together, so it's hard to read anything because there are always other guests in the way. You're likely to be finished in 15-30 minutes.

Dorado für Comic-Fans und für alle, denen das Leben ernst genug ist, um Freude an Witz, Ironie und tieferer Bedeutung zu haben! Immer wieder sehenswerte Sonderausstellungen: 2019: „Ohne Anfang oder Ende“ zeigt Joann Sfar bis zum 11.8.2019 Menschlich-Allzu-Menschliches & Traumhaftes zu Mensch & Tier (Kater) aus jüdischer Sicht. Idyllisch am Rheinweg gelegen – immer wieder interessant und Eintritt frei mit dem Museumspass! Cartoons von Christoph Niemann (bis 29.10.17, mein Foto zeigt das Logo auf der Eingangs-Glas-Türe innen), ab 11.11.17-11.3.18 Lorenzo Mattotti. Viele Comic-Karten, Lese- und Info-Raum. 2 Gebäude, miteinander verbunden. Klein, aber fein! Mit Museumspass ohne Gebühr. Schließfach 1 €/ 1 CHF.

Art lovers might regularly prefer the Kunstmuseum or the Gegenwartskunstmuseum, the Beyeler Foundation or the Tinguly, but that might prove to be a mistake, since Cartoon Museum Basel is one of the best of it's genre, and very much inclined towards the artistic aspect of the medium. At least two of the last shows, of ATAK and of Joe Sacco were very finely curated, written and produced. Also, the museum has a its own wide and thorough collection as well as a cute shop, and is situated in an extraordinary old house with a nice...

Visited today as I saw signs in the street and it sounded interesting. I did not know what to expect as I know nothing about cartoons. I left more aware about the art form and actually quite moved by one of the works, 'Here'. For 7CHF this was well worth the money. The lockers are free and the member of staff on the front desk was friendly. The only critique I have is it would be good to have some signs for to direct you around...

It is a nice cute museum with a handsome collection of caricature, cartoons, drawings, comics, illustrations and posters. The museum has two buildings, front and rear. The front building is a traditional gothic style building that has an aristrocat beauty, the rear one is an extension in a modern building. The museum offers many services including beyond the hours reservation and organizing of various...
