The Kunsthalle Bremen is an art museum located close to the Bremen Old Town on the "Culture Mile". The Kunsthalle was built in 1849, enlarged in 1902 by architect Eduard Gildemeister, and expanded several more times, most notably in 2011.

The museum houses a collection of European paintings from the 14thC to the present day and sculptures from the 16th to 21st centuries. Highlights in its collection include works by Claude Monet, Édouard Manet and Paul Cézanne, and major paintings by Lovis Corinth, Max Liebermann, Max Beckmann and Paula Modersohn-Becker and others.

The print and drawing department has hundreds of thousands of sheets from the 1400s to the 1900s, while the New Media department is for contemporary artists in a variety of disciplines.
