The Brucke Museum

September 29th, 2006

Art lovers should take a trip to the Brucke Museum in the southwest of the city. The museum celebrates the work of the group of artists known as Die Brucke (The Bridge). Founded in 1905 by Ernst Ludwig Kircher, Erich Heckel and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, the group sought to move away from staid art traditions. The group was the birthplace for German expressionism, and the Brucke Museum celebrates some of its finest work. The museum is open everyday except Tuesday.
