Museum Gunzenhauser
Converted from a former savings bank in the New Objectivity style, this museum holds one of the world's largest collections of works by Otto Dix.
This branch of the art collections opened in 2007 in a bank building completed in 1930. It displays nearly 2,500 20th-century German artworks donated by collector Alfred Gunzenhauser, including close to 300 works by Otto Dix, as well as works by Der Blaue Reiter and Die Brücke and modern abstract art. The collection is a manageable size, and you can see it in about 1.5 hours. Adult admission is about 10 euros, and the museum is closed Mondays. A combined ticket is better value. It is near the southern railway station, and it is about 15 minutes' walk to the Karl Marx Monument.
