Description
Behind the façade of the late baroque Kügelgenhaus is the Museum of Dresden Romanticism. It is located in the former home of the painter Gerhard von Kügelgen and is a reminder of a heyday of the city´s cultural life. Where the painter, his family, friends and artists once met to exchange ideas, guests can now take a stroll through Dresden during the Romantic period. They will encounter painters, musicians and writers such as Caspar David Friedrich, Philipp Otto Runge, Johan Christian Clausen Dahl and Carl Gustav Carus, Carl Maria von Weber, Robert Schumann and Richard Wagner, Novalis, Ludwig Tieck, the Schlegel brothers, Heinrich von Kleist and E. T. A. Hoffmann. T. A. Hoffmann.
Numerous events in the Kügelgenhaus bring Dresden Romanticism to life. Chamber music, readings and lectures in the former parlour of the von Kügelgen family recreate the salon culture of the 19th century. Educational programmes allow children and young people to approach the world of ideas and the attitude to life of the Romantic period in a playful way.
