Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Art museum in Krefeld, Germany.

The Kaiser Wilhelm Museum exhibits 18,000 artworks across multiple periods, from late Middle Ages paintings to contemporary installations from international artists.

The museum opened in 1897 as a memorial to Kaiser Wilhelm I and underwent substantial modifications in 1912 with the construction of north and south wings.

The building contains the 1923 mural 'Age of Life' by Johan Thorn Prikker on the second floor, depicting different stages of human existence.

Located at Joseph-Beuys-Platz 1, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM.

The renovation from 2012 to 2016 preserved historical architecture while implementing international climate control standards and adding wheelchair accessibility features.
