In the location's words:

The Horst Janssen Museum is dedicated to the fine arts on paper and bears the name of the important North German artist Horst Janssen - a versatile draughtsman, etcher, wood engraver, poster artist, illustrator, author and graphic artist. Visitors can expect a fascinating exploration of the work and multifaceted personality of this extraordinary artist.

The focus is on drawing as a universal form of human expression. In addition to Janssen's art, we are also interested in classical and contemporary developments in this genre. Among other things, we explore how digital tools can influence drawing ("Move The Line", 2016 "), the diverse possibilities of drawing itself (as in the scores exhibition "Sound goes Image", 2017 " and "Only drawing can do that", 2020 ") as well as the individual perspectives of artists on drawing ("Museum für Zeichnung" by Monika Bartholomé, 2018 "; "Universal Turn" by Jorinde Voigt, 2019 ").
