About the Waldfrieden Sculpture Park

The Waldfrieden Sculpture Park is a sculpture park by the English sculptor Tony Cragg, in which numerous sculptures by other well-known artists are also on display, some on loan. The facility is run as a private museum by a non-profit foundation, the Cragg Foundation, which has been in existence since 2005.

About the Von der Heydt Museum

The Von der Heydt Museum was founded in 1902 as the Städtisches Museum Wuppertal-Elberfeld. Since 1961 it has borne the name von der Heydt in memory of the banking family that was important for the promotion of the museum. The museum's collection includes paintings, sculptures, graphics and photographs from the 17th century to the present. The collection focuses on 19th century French painting and modern art.

The programme is organised by Michael Zwingmann, sculpture network Coordinator Lower Saxony.
