Kunsthaus NRW Kornelimünster
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 North Rhine-Westphalia and houses the Kunsthaus NRW with a collection of works of art from Rhenish expressionism to the present. 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 the Imperial Abbey of Kornelimünster. The monastery atmosphere makes the local exhibition a unique art experience. Upon request, group tours on different topics can be arranged.
