Guided Story
Imagine standing right where Otto Dix first picked up a brush as a child. Behind you, the old Schlossgarten whispers stories of its past. This house isn't just a museum; it's a glimpse into the mind of an artist who captured the rawness of war and humanity in his art. Look up, and you'll see the wooden beams that have witnessed the passage of time since Dix's childhood. Did you know Dix used to wander these streets, observing people whose faces later appeared in his paintings? As you explore, take a close look at the portraits — every face has a story to tell. And who knows, maybe you'll feel a spark of creativity yourself, just like Dix did in these very rooms.
