Kunstmuseum Pablo Picasso Münster

The Kunstmuseum Picasso Münster was opened in 2000 and is the only museum in Germany dedicated exclusively to the work of Pablo Picasso. In two listed historical buildings in the heart of Münster's old town, the museum presents a worldwide unique collection of over 800 Picasso lithographs and 101 linocuts. These include almost the complete lithographic work of the artist, including rarely shown intermediate states and trial prints, which allow visitors to gain in-depth insights into Picasso's artistic production processes.

On an exhibition area of approximately 650 square meters, various aspects and works from the extensive collection are shown in regularly changing thematic presentations. In addition to the focus on Picasso himself, special exhibitions are always dedicated to his artist friends and contemporaries such as Marc Chagall, Henri Matisse or Georges Braque – often with loans from international museums and collections. This diversity underlines the house's claim to be a lively place of artistic dialogue and research.

The mission of the art museum is to make Picasso's graphic work accessible in its extraordinary breadth and depth and to convey the cultural significance of this artist to a broad audience. The museum thus makes a significant contribution to international art and cultural education and promotes the understanding of modern art history.

Sustainability and the preservation of cultural values are reflected in the handling of the historical buildings and the careful maintenance of the collection. By using the listed architecture of the buildings, Münster's cultural heritage is preserved, while at the same time a sustainable contribution to art education is made with modern museological concepts.

The Kunstmuseum Picasso Münster has established itself as an important cultural attraction since its foundation and attracts visitors from all over the world. It combines tradition and modernity in a unique way and offers an inspiring experience for art lovers and researchers alike.

This concise combination of exclusive collection, historical atmosphere, innovative exhibitions and sustainable museum management makes the house an indispensable part of the German cultural landscape.
