The Herzog Anton Ulrich-Museum (HAUM) is a museum on the move. It is one of the oldest museums in Europe, but is open to questions and forms of communication of our present day.
With a wide-ranging collection of ancient art from antiquity to modern times, the HAUM is an institution of national importance. The princely collections, with around 190,000 objects, cover almost all genres with the most important examples of various art regions from the Middle Ages to the 18th century, in addition to a focus on painting, applied art, sculpture and graphics; the area of art on paper extends to the modern and contemporary periods. The collection of Dutch and Flemish painting, represented by masters such as Vermeer, Rembrandt and Rubens, as well as Italian painting with works by Giorgione, Veronese, Tintoretto and others, is of international importance.
In-depth special exhibitions also shed light on other themes and are dedicated to regularly changing focal points of art and cultural history.
