Great collection!!! State of the art on hiw a modern collection should be displayed! highly recommend a visit (take your time).

One of my favourite museums! I like the details they put in the exhibitions and the building itself. The two special exhibitions are lovely and very enjoyable with their themes. The permanent collection is massive and you can easily spend a whole day there. I like the fact that they don't put works so tightly next to each other, and the curators put effort into making the exhibitions easy to follow without exhausting the audience. The handband system as ticket is nice too so you can always go for a drink/food and return afterwards.

Lovely museum with interesting temporary exhibits and a generous permanent collection organised per timezone combining paintings, sculptures and design.

It's enormous museum, you should go there well rested, the price 16€, you will see the paints of Vasili kandinsky, Andy Warhol, prints of René Magritte and a couple of sculpture of Rodin. It's worth to see.

It is a great museum with very impressive art collection.

Incredible art gallery with a masterfully curated collection of art. I loved the juxtaposition of old classic art beside more modern and abstract pieces. Overall, a pleasant and enjoyable art-viewing experience in a beautifully renovated building.

Very beautiful place! on the way to the Kunstpalast are absolutely beautiful flowers and once you're inside it looks rather modern compared to the outside. The Art exhibition we went to was "Tod und Teufel (Death and The Devil)" and it was definitely an interesting experience. Ranging from fashion to music to greek mythology and taking death with a bit of humor. If you are a fan of a bit more gruesome, gorey and out of the box art i can recommend Death and The Devil. Personally i didn't think it was very scary but very interesting to see how different artists express death. 👍

We came in here when having seen a poster advertising Tod und Teufel - Faszination Des Horrors. Really enjoyed the exhibition.

Art to see! 💥💚 Nice place, cafeteria inside, some renovation outside, but no problems with walking arround

Cameron Buckner 2023 Jun 25

Don't waste your time. The permanent museum exhibits are closed for renovation; only two small areas are open with contemporary exhibits are available. They don't tell you this when they sell tickets. The cafe is barely operational. The website is not updated to indicate this. It's a schwindel, as one of the German reviews notes.

Museum Kunstpalast is one of the prime art museums in Dusseldorf. The permanent exhibition as well as the temporary exhibitions are worth a visit. Parts of the complex are currently under renovation. The pictures are from my visit for White Night 2023. It is good destination all year round.

Very square and tidy white building. We saw two great exhibitions - Mehr Licht - old and traditional, and Refik Anadol - new and digital. A good contrast, yet they both had some similar themes. It was €12 each which is a bit steep I think. I'm used to art being free to look at. The coffee shop has tasty if expensive food and pleasant staff. The shop has a lot of cool things too but mostly out of my price range. Very nice to look at!

Been there for Refik Anadol’s machine imaginations. Your contentment depends on what you expect. Considering the entrance fee, I find museums in Germany meaninglessly expensive (21€ for adult ticket)🤷🏻‍♀️or you should wait nacht der museum and visit whole museums with one ticket. overall Anadol’s hallucination was soothing in a way and enjoyed it The collection on the first floor is like a time travel between centuries.

Beautiful museum.
We visited the museum for the Christo & Jeanne-Claude exhibition, and we enjoyed everything. The curation and organization of the exhibition, the staff, the different facilities, and the cafe.

Damien Basuyaux 2018 Nov 03

Great experience!
We did the permanent exhibition: 5€ (only 😀) and we had access to an amazing gallery full of great artists from various periods!
Consider spending at least 2 hours on site.
Lockers available for your personal belongings.
I strongly recommend it! 🤙
