Universalmuseum Joanneum: Neue Galerie

Neue Galerie is an art museum in Graz holding more than 70,000 artworks spanning from the 1800s to today. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, and contemporary installations displayed across several exhibition spaces.

The museum was created in 1941 when an earlier gallery split into two sections, with this one focusing on 19th and 20th-century works. A major renovation in 2011 reshaped the building and linked it with nearby historic structures.

The museum houses works by Austrian and international artists that reflect how regional art developed alongside worldwide movements. Walking through the galleries, you can see how artistic styles and ideas changed from one period to the next.

The museum sits in the Joanneum Quarter and connects to other cultural spaces through underground passages, offering year-round access to multiple exhibitions. Both areas are easily walkable and make for a connected visit.

The museum connects to neighboring cultural buildings through underground passages that remain largely hidden from view. These subterranean routes let visitors move between different collections without stepping outside.
