Sprengel Museum

Sprengel Museum is an art museum in Hannover that focuses on modern and contemporary works. It presents painting, sculpture, photography, and other media through rotating exhibitions and a permanent collection.

The museum was founded in the 1970s and developed from a private art collection. Its creation reflected a desire to make contemporary art forms accessible to the wider public.

The museum is named after its founder and displays works from classical modernism to contemporary art. Visitors encounter artistic movements that shaped the 20th century and continue to influence today's art world.

The location sits in an urban area with good transit connections and is easy to reach by public transport. The interior spaces are accessible to visitors of all mobility levels and offer rest areas between exhibitions.

The building itself is a work of architectural history and regularly houses works by artists who were active in the region. This makes it a place where local art history connects with international perspectives.
