Stroll through the airy halls of this iconic contemporary art hub to inspect its range of fascinating temporary displays and collections.

The Kunsthalle Duesseldorf is one of the city’s oldest galleries for modern art, built in the brutalist architectural style in the late 1960s. Its exhibition halls have a simple and elegant layout, allowing you to focus on the acclaimed works of art decorating the walls. Enjoy the light and airy feel in this spacious gallery and learn about the city’s contemporary art scene.

Notice the shape of the building, designed by architects Beckmann and Brockes. It is a simple block exterior that perfectly executes a brutalist scheme.

Explore the temporary exhibits that change several times per year, offering a fresh experience for each new visit. The collection usually contains a mixture of sculpture, painting and other modern installations. Capture photos of your favorite works and consider what they say about society. Various informative plaques shed light on the inner workings and context of the art.

Take the free guided tour available on Sundays for a more comprehensive study of the art pieces and the history of the gallery. Relax in the chic café with snacks and drinks as you ponder the artworks in this complex. Live music is offered on many weekend evenings. The complex also contains a souvenir shop packed with books, memorabilia and other intriguing items.

The institution opens daily from late morning until late afternoon, Tuesday through Sunday. There is a fee to enter, with discounts for groups and free entry for those under 18 years old. Every second Sunday of the month has free admission.

Go to the historic center of the city to find the Kunsthalle Duesseldorf. Take the U-Bahn bus or train to Heinrich-Heine-Allee and walk north for several blocks to get here. See nearby landmarks, such as the Altes Rathaus DĂŒsseldorf, the Rhine Promenade and the Hofgarten.
