Viersen sculpture collection

The Viersen Sculpture Collection presents contemporary artworks across multiple locations in the city center, featuring steel, bronze, and stone installations.

William Pohl, an American businessman, contributed numerous sculptures to the collection through donations spanning 25 years, establishing its foundation in the late 20th century.

The Städtische Galerie im Park organizes regular art exhibitions and educational programs to explain the significance of each sculpture in the collection.

Visitors can access the outdoor sculptures at any time, while the gallery maintains specific opening hours and offers guided tours by appointment.

The 12-meter steel sculpture 'New Star' by Mark di Suvero stands as the largest piece in the collection, initially generating strong reactions from local residents.
