Kunsthalle Messmer, Contemporary art museum in Riegel am Kaiserstuhl, Germany
Kunsthalle Messmer is a contemporary art museum housed in a renovated brewery building that spans multiple exhibition levels. The site extends along the riverside landscape and combines indoor gallery spaces with an outdoor sculpture garden.
The institution was established in 2009 in a building that previously operated as a brewery. Its early years focused on presenting works by international artists, particularly those working with geometric and abstract forms.
The location draws visitors interested in contemporary art forms and geometric compositions. You can experience how the building itself becomes part of the artistic experience, with its open spaces and connection to the riverside setting.
Entrance fees vary for adults and students, with free entry for children under eight and discounted rates available for families. Check the website before your visit for current opening hours and details about which exhibitions are on display.
The outdoor sculpture garden displays works by lesser-known artists including Gerald Baschek and Hellmut Bruch. This outdoor space provides a calm setting to discover modern artworks within the riverside landscape.
