Gemäldegalerie - Dauerausstellung

In the organizer's words:

Around 320 paintings are on display in the painting gallery on the second floor of the museum, which was newly installed in 2016.

The hanging is strongly oriented towards the changed viewing habits and preferences of today's visitors. Whereas in the past, art-historical significance was often the only guiding principle, today the focus is on displaying the entire spectrum of the collection as broadly as possible. A larger selection of motifs that are particularly popular with the public, such as still lifes, landscapes, animal pieces or attractive portraits of women, can now be seen.

Each exhibition room is also dedicated to a special thematic motto, which is intended to provide visitors with a new approach to the content. This can relate to artistic principles, such as the relationship between the performing arts and painting, the artist's self-image or the art of deception through painting. But there are also very topical themes to be discovered, such as the migration of artists during the Thirty Years' War or the importance of the family in society. The increased focus on visitors is also reflected in the fact that, for the first time, each work of art in the new gallery has been given an individual description.
