Ernst Barlach House, Expressionist art museum in Jenisch Park, Altona, Germany.
The Ernst Barlach House exhibits sculptures, drawings, and graphics in a functionalist brick building filled with natural light from the River Elbe.
Hermann F. Reemtsma established this museum in 1962 after protecting Barlach's artworks from Nazi persecution during World War II.
The collection contains 140 works in wood, bronze, ceramics, porcelain, and terracotta, plus 400 drawings from different periods of Barlach's career.
Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday through Sunday between 11:00 AM and 6:00 PM, with special closures on December 24 and 31.
