Kunsthalle Kiel

The Kunsthalle zu Kiel is an art museum in the German city of Kiel, located north of the city centre on Düsternbrooker Weg. At roughly 2,000 square metres of display space, it is the largest museum in Kiel. Opened in 1909 in a building by Georg Lohr, with a shell limestone facade in Neo-Baroque and Jugendstil styles, it stands out for its two bison sculptures by August Gaul at the entrance. Its painting holdings cover 19th-century Romanticism, the Russian 'Wandermaler' painters, German Expressionism and Impressionism, and international art since 1945. Works listed on the website include Italian morning by Karl Briullov, The Wendelsveg by Max Beckmann, At the Mirror by Georg Friedrich Kersting and None by Emil Hünten.
