Kunsthaus NRW in the baroque monastery residence Kornelimünster

Lovers of modern art will get their money's worth here. In 1721, Prince-Abbot Count Hyacinth Alfons von Suys had the former monastery converted into a baroque palace. Today it belongs to the state of NRW and houses the Kunsthaus NRW with a collection of artworks from Rhenish Expressionism to the present day. The collection includes works by famous artists such as Christian Rohlfs, Ernst Wilhelm Nay, Günther Uecker, Gerhard Richter and Joseph Beuys. A permanent exhibition provides information about the history of Kornelimünster Abbey. The monastery atmosphere makes the local exhibition a unique art experience.

Group tours on various topics can be arranged on request.
