Family Tour at the Lehmbruck Museum: Discover Art Together
On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the Lehmbruck Museum in Duisburg invites you to a public family tour. Art mediator Friederike Winkler-Rufenach presents selected masterpieces from the collection in an entertaining and easy-to-understand manner. The tour is particularly aimed at families with children, but is open to all interested adults.
Masterpieces that Spark Questions
The focus is on a lively discovery experience centered around modern sculpture. Participants examine art not only from a distance but also delve into questions together: What material is a work made of? How was it created? What idea lies behind its shape? The dialogic approach makes local culture and international art creation accessible for different age groups.
Modern Sculpture in Unique Architecture
The Lehmbruck Museum presents a significant collection of modern sculpture in an outstanding museum building from the post-war period, located in the heart of Duisburg. Amidst large-format sculptures, serene figures, and expressive forms, the city tour through art opens new perspectives on the cultural heritage of the house. A striking example is the large, machine-like sculpture The Little Man by Jean Tinguely.
Art Mediation for the Whole Family
The family tour combines expert art mediation with a relaxed atmosphere. Children are given space for their own observations and spontaneous questions, while adults discover new connections between material, movement, expression, and meaning. This way, the museum visit becomes a cultural enrichment and a shared experience for several generations.
