Käthe Kollwitz House, Cultural heritage museum in Moritzburg, Germany.
Description
The Käthe Kollwitz House in Moritzburg is a residential museum displaying works, personal objects, and documents from the artist's life across several rooms. The location preserves the feeling of a private artist's residence with original furniture and fixtures from her era.
History
The artist moved into the house in Moritzburg in 1944, where she spent her final months until 1945. The building was later adapted as a memorial to preserve her legacy for future generations.
Culture
The house served as a personal refuge for the artist during her final months and still bears traces of her everyday life. Visitors can see how she worked and lived in these rooms, offering a direct sense of her time here.
Practical
The museum is located in a quiet residential area of Moritzburg and is easily accessible on foot. Visitors should allow time for a leisurely walk through the rooms, as it is an intimate experience that rewards careful attention.
Did you know?
The house preserves a working print studio where visitors can directly experience traditional printing techniques. This hands-on access to the artist's working methods makes the museum much more than a display of finished pieces.
