Treasures with a Story: Your Objects in the Focus of Art Experts
Found – Inherited – Collected invites collectors to the art collections of Veste Coburg: museum experts provide a well-founded, free initial assessment of brought objects – from ceramics, porcelain, and glass to painting, sculpture, and graphics, as well as weapons, orders, coins, and medals. Appointment booking is required; no appraisals will be given.
Art Experience Instead of Attic Puzzles
In the exhibition atmosphere of Veste Coburg, viewing the works becomes a lively art experience: colors, surfaces, and materiality of your objects appear in knowledgeable light. The curation of the evening consolidates expertise from collection areas – precise, dialogical, respectful.
Expert Knowledge from the Source
For crafts, ceramics, porcelain, and glass, Dr. Sven Hauschke advises; Dr. Niels Fleck is responsible for painting and sculpture; weapons, orders, coins, and medals are examined by Dr. Marcus Pilz; for graphics, Prof. Dr. Stefanie Knöll is available. Questions about materials, restoration, craft techniques, conservation storage, and presentation are answered by restorers Heiner Grieb and Lukas Domann. Appointment allocation: 09561 879 48 or fuehrungen@kunstsammlungen-coburg.de.
Provenance, Technique, Preservation: What Your Object Tells
From glazed stoneware to pastel painting: in conversation, art direction, period, attribution, and technique are contextualized. Restorative notes explain climatic requirements, UV protection, mounting, mats, and suitable materials – for a sustainable aesthetic experience at home.
Visitor Service and Accessibility
The meeting point is the ticket office in the museum shop (2nd courtyard). The castle offers tiered accessibility options (elevators, ramps, scalamobil in some areas). Photography for private use is allowed without flash and tripod, except for special exhibitions.
