Artists' houses

Personalities with a vocation

Exceptional artists such as Max Ernst, Wilhelm Morgner and Peter August Böckstiegel have their roots in the rich cultural landscape of North Rhine-Westphalia. Here, it is still easy and relaxed to understand what drove these personalities and where they drew their inspiration. A visit to a suitable artists' museum or house is a must on the travel programme to get to know their lives and work in beautiful places. And that's not all. In Brühl, for example, the trip can be wonderfully combined with a guided tour of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, or in Soest it can be perfectly combined with a detour to a picturesque dam.
