Feld-Haus

In the location's words:

The Feld-Haus Neuss was opened in 2010 as part of the Clemens Sels Museum and is picturesquely situated on the Kirkeby Field, between the rocket station and the island of Hombroich. 🖼️ The building, designed by Per Kirkeby, is not only an architectural highlight, but also a unique place for popular prints - the only museum on this subject in the whole of North Rhine-Westphalia!

The collection, which comprises over 20,000 objects, was put together by Dr. Irmgard Feldhaus (1920-2010). She was director of the Clemens Sels Museum for many years and devoted herself privately to popular printmaking. Her collection, which mainly contains printed matter from the 18th and 19th centuries, was donated to the city of Neuss and today forms the core of the Feld-Haus. These objects, from devotional sheets to greeting cards and wall decorations, offer fascinating insights into the cultural history of past times.

In addition to the permanent exhibition, there are two to three special exhibitions every year that offer exciting new perspectives. You can also find out more about the exhibited objects via multimedia stations. Collectors and scientists have the opportunity to view the collections for research purposes.
