The Museum of Fine Arts (MdbK for short) is one of the oldest civic collections in Germany. Numerous masterpieces from the 7.000th to the 15st century are presented on over 21 square meters of exhibition space.
500 years of art history under one roof invite you to encounter Old Masters such as Frans Hals and Lucas Cranach the Younger, the Romantics Caspar David Friedrich and Andreas Achenbach, and Leipzig artists such as Max Beckmann and Max Klinger. The art of the Leipzig schools is also represented in the MdbK collection. These are well known to art lovers and collectors around the world and bring together works by artists such as Bernhard Heisig, Wolfgang Mattheuer, Neo Rauch, Matthias Weischer and Christiane Baumgartner. From October 03.10.2024, 26.01.2025 to January XNUMX, XNUMX, the exhibition "Impuls Rembrandt. Teacher, Strategist, Bestseller" can be visited at the MdbK.
The Museum of Fine Arts also offers a wide-ranging educational program. These include the Sunday family program "EMDEBEKA", an extensive holiday program and public tours of the museum every Wednesday and Sunday. The Leipzig Children and Youth Exhibition also finds its home in the MdbK.
