Sammlung Scharf-Gerstenberg

Look up at the high ceilings, a reminder of the time when these halls housed Egyptian artifacts. Now, all around you, there's a world of dreams and fantasies, spanning from French Romanticism to Surrealism. Did you know this collection comes from a special foundation? Gathered by Dieter Scharf in memory of his grandfather Otto Gerstenberg, it has a deep history. Imagine Gerstenberg, collecting these artworks with a passion that survived through two world wars. You might feel some of that spirit when you gaze into the eyes of a surreal sculpture. And don't forget, before you leave, to take a short walk north to see the equestrian statue of the Great Elector.
