Museum Kunstpalast

Düsseldorf

A visit to the museum is a pleasure. The Kunstpalast's motto is that everyone should feel welcome. The Kunstpalast app, which uses augmented reality to bring works of art to life, and the rooms for children designed by illustrator Christoph Niemann contribute to this. In any case, children of all ages are welcome and there are special offers. The Kunstpalast collection contains over 130,000 objects, around 800 of which can be seen in a chronological tour through 49 rooms. Art from eleven centuries is on display. In addition to famous works by Rubens, Yves Klein and others, you can also discover design objects such as the Aldi plastic bag by Günter Fruhtrunk or Birkenstock shoes. Thanks to the app, you never lose your bearings.  In addition to the collection, there are temporary exhibitions by artists such as Gerhard Richter and Tony Cragg. 

Important information about accessibility: certificates

  • "Reisen für Alle" (“Travel for All”) is a nationwide, uniform labeling system for barrier-free travel. It offers reliable information on the accessibility of tourist offerings, such as hotels, attractions and means of transport. Providers who allow themselves to be labeled are checked for accessibility by specially trained surveyors. The results are published in detailed test reports so that travelers with disabilities know exactly which offers are suitable for their needs.
