How much Ludwig is in the Suermondt-Ludwig?

Peter Ludwig would have celebrated his 100th birthday on July 9, 2025 - an occasion for all Ludwig museums worldwide to commemorate the visionary collector and art patron. This anniversary is of particular significance for Aachen: not only is the Ludwig Foundation based here in the family's former home. Two of the city's museums - the Ludwig Forum for International Art and the Suermondt-Ludwig-Museum - also owe extraordinary donations to the close ties between Peter and Irene Ludwig and their home town.
Highlights from the Ludwig couple's collection - in particular the internationally important collection of medieval sculpture - are highlighted in the permanent exhibition. This labeling makes it clear how many works from antiquity to the present from the Ludwigs' collection can be found here.
