The Neue Galerie is an art museum, built between 1871 and 1877. In the Second World War the building was damaged and burned out in 1943, so that large parts of the collection were lost. In 1976 the museum opened again and included today a large collection of German Expressionists and an additional collection of contemporary art works from the 19th and 20th centuries with Romantic and Impressionist paintings.
The Neue Galerie is an art museum in Kassel, Hesse, Germany. It is part of Hessen Kassel Heritage and is located at Schöne Aussicht, overlooking the Karlsaue. The museum presents paintings, sculpture and contemporary art from around 1800 to the present, with holdings drawn from the municipal and state art collections of Kassel.
