Gunzenhauser Museum

[1] Fred Otto (1883–1944), head of the municipal planning and building control office between 1925 and 1944, purposely abandoned decorative elements and used bright, beige-coloured travertine for the facades.

During the renovation, the architect Volker Staab took advantage of the existing building's potential and minimized the use of structural addition and interventions.

The museum also contains the second largest collection[clarification needed] of works by Alexej von Jawlensky and Gabriele Münter, who were members of Der Blaue Reiter.

From the Weimar Republic period there are works by Karl Hubbuch, Franz Radziwill, Alexander Kanoldt, Georg Schrimpf and Gustav Wunderwald.

From the period after the Second World War many works originate from Willi Baumeister, Fritz Winter, Ernst Wilhelm Nay, Bernard Schultze and Emil Schumacher as well as from Karl Hofer, Johannes Grützke, Horst Antes, Klaus Fußmann, Karl Horst Hödicke and Rainer Fetting.
