Well Designed Museum of History, Art and Culture

The LWL-Museum fur Kunst und Kultur unites 1,000 years of art, ranging from the early Middle Ages through to the present. Guided tours, workshops and artists’ talks offer new ways of approaching art. Concerts, readings, dance, theatre and film attract the public into the foyer, the Lichthof in the old building as well as into the Auditorium. The museum concept takes into account the special needs of visitors with disabilities. Thanks to such highlights as the Soest Antependium, works by the tom Ring family of painters, the collections of expressionists artworks and of contemporary art the museum has achieved international recognition. The museum shows changing exhibitions across a floor space of approximately 1,000 square metres, with additional spaces for studio exhibitions and presentations of contemporary art. Since 1977, the museum has been the organizer of Skulptur Projekte every ten years, most recently in 2017, examining public space as a site for art.

    Worth seeing!
    A museum worth visiting, which gives a good overview of the history of art in the last centuries. The present-day art is not neglected. There is a well-signposted route through the entire exhibition, so that you won't miss anything.

    Fabulous museum with excellent museum café
    Unlike other visitors we do like the modern architecture of the museum. The exhibitions are changing and it is worth checking beforehand what is on offer. We spend a good time there. The museum café is a must - excellent coffee, nice cake, friendly staff.
