Derneburg Castle: Georg Baselitz and His Heirs

Overview

Derneburg Castle – for almost a thousand years a place where art is created. Once a monastery, it soon became the largest private art museum in Europe. One of Germany's most important painters, Georg Baselitz, lived and worked here. Since 2006, Derneburg has belonged to the collector couple Andrew and Christine Hall. They are transforming the castle into Europe's largest private museum of contemporary art.
