“A Journey Through Art and Nature: Exploring Museum Island”

Embark on a journey through the enchanting Museum Island Hombroich. This unique destination combines art, architecture, and nature in a harmonious blend, offering a truly memorable experience.

Our comfortable coach will take you to neighbouring Neuss, where the picturesque Museum Island Hombroich is located. As we travel, our knowledgeable guide will share fascinating insights into the history of the island and the vision behind its creation.

Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by the tranquil beauty of the park, which was once an overgrown industrialist's villa. Stroll through the meticulously restored gardens, designed by renowned landscape architect Bernhard Korte.

The Museum Insel Hombroich houses a remarkable collection of antique and modern art, featuring works by renowned artists such as Hans Arp, Alexander Calder, Paul Cézanne, and many more. Explore the unique exhibition pavilions designed by sculptor Erwin Heerich, each with its own distinct character and atmosphere.

Take a leisurely walk through the park's serene landscapes, including the "Kirkeby-Feld" and the “Raketenstation”, a former NATO missile base. Admire the harmonious blend of art, architecture, and nature that makes Hombroich so special.
