| Deutsches Glasmalerei-Museum
Stained Glass, Glass-Sculpture, Glass-Architecture
With its two modern glass facades to the west and the north the German Stained-Glass Museum in Linnich gives light the opportunity to unfold in a monumental way. The building was opened in 1997 after the old watermill was transformed through the addition of contemporary architectural parts. The unity of history and the contemporary of light, colour and space was distinguished in 2000 with a price of the land North Rhine Westphalia. The collection contains ca. 2000 works of art, both stained glass and studio glass. It offers an overview of stained glass from Victorian to present times. The donation of 117 works from the 2nd half of the 20 century by the glass atelier Dr. H. Oidtmann, the estates of artists such as Fritz Geiges, Maria Katzgrau, Erich Feld and Hans Lünenborg as well as donations and loans of many contemporary glass artists, make the collection unique in Europe. With two special exhibitions per year and a varied events programme, the visitor will experience a lively glass bustle!
