Thousands of charming cats give an overview of the cat's history in everyday life and in art. Come and spend an unforgettable afternoon in the realm of our beloved velvet paws. The current opening hours can be found on our homepage. It is also possible to visit the cat museum on other days by appointment with phone or e-mail. Here are a few remarks to prevent misunderstandings: Sorry, the available rooms are not accessible to disabled guests. There are several steps to cope with and the walkways are cramped. Therefore it is unfortunately not possible to visit the exhibition with a baby carriage too. And please do not bring any other animals into the exhibition with regard to the siamese ball lightning of the house. Thank you for your understanding ♥

The Wilhelm-Hack museum is an art institution for modern and contemporary art. It houses a diverse collection of medieval, modern and contemporary art encompassing circa 10,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, artists’ books and – gramophone records. Since 2009, the exhibition spaces of the collected are reinstalled every year, each time focussing on a different thematic aspect in order to create new perspectives as regards these works. Other exhibition series deal with special groups of works, for example the ‘Kabinettstucke’ series dedicated to works on paper in particular, or the ‘Zoom’ series, which concentrates on individual works or complexes within the collection. Alongside this, every year three to four big temporary exhibitions are shown every year. The unmistakable emblem of the Wilhelm-Hack-Museum is the ceramic facade by the Catalan painter and sculptor Joan Miro from 1979.
