Gerhard Marcks House

The Gerhard Marcks House is an art museum in central Bremen housed in a protected heritage building from 1825. The collection includes hundreds of sculptures along with thousands of drawings and prints from different periods.

The building was originally constructed in 1825 as a customs gate for goods entering the city. It was converted into a museum in 1971 and has displayed the work of artist Gerhard Marcks ever since.

The museum displays works by Gerhard Marcks and regularly shows contemporary artists from around the world. Visitors can see how sculpture and drawing have developed through different periods and artistic movements.

The museum is located near the Wallanlagen park and is easily accessible on foot from the city center. Plan enough time to see the collection properly, as it spans multiple levels with numerous works on display.

The collection includes works by Waldemar Grzimek, an artist who bridged artistic traditions between East and West after World War II. His drawings document an important exchange between divided artistic worlds.
