Städtische Kunsthalle Recklinghausen

The Kunsthalle Recklinghausen exhibits modern artworks across three levels within thick concrete walls, featuring neon lights and dark tiled floors throughout the space.

Established in 1950, the museum initiated its program with an exhibition connecting German and French contemporary art during post-war reconstruction efforts.

The institution awards a biennial art prize of 10,000 euros to artists under 35, continuing the legacy of the junger westen movement.

Located near the central train station, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00, with regular admission at 5 euros and reduced rates available.

The museum occupies a converted above-ground military bunker with meter-thick walls, transformed into exhibition spaces through extensive architectural modifications.
