Collection
With around 4,000 paintings and sculptures and some 70,000 drawings, prints, videos, installations and photographs, the collection of the Kunstmuseum Bern highlights important groups of works and different periods from the late Middle Ages to the present day. Their complexity is an expression of our historical relationship with Bern and the specific history of our collection.
In addition, the Kunstmuseum Bern is characterized by a large number of associated foundations that contribute significant collections. As a result, it is closely linked to private commitment and reflects the unique diversity and cultural wealth of our region.
