Felix Nussbaum Museum
"Even though I may perish, don't let my pictures die." The renowned architect Daniel Libeskind designed the Felix Nussbaum Museum as a museum with no exit. It was opened in 1998 as the first completed Libeskind-construction. The American news magazine "Time" included it among the top ten contemporary architectural designs. The museum is named after the artist Felix Nussbaum, who was born 1904 in Osnabrück and murdered in Auschwitz 1944. Like no other painter, his impressive works record the stations of his life: from "happy childhood" via artistic success in Berlin to the despair of persecuted Jew living in Belgian exile. The museum is home to around 180 works in the Felix Nussbaum Collection and by its impressive architecture museum and memorial of the Holocaust at the same time.
