About
Goethe Museum Düsseldorf is an abbreviated name for the Goethe Museum / Anton and Katharina Kippenberg Foundation. The Goethe Museum Düsseldorf / Anton and Katharina Kippenberg Foundation was founded in 1953 by two heiresses of Professor Anton Kippenberg, the former publisher of Insel-Verlag. The statutory requirement and basis of the foundation is a contract between the foundation and the two heirs and the city of Düsseldorf dated February 13, 1953, which, in conjunction with a supplementary agreement between the foundation and the Goethe Museum, provides the location of “Schloss Jägerhof” and financial support secured by the city. The museum opened on June 30, 1956. Under the motto Goethe and his time, the cultural history museum shows original manuscripts, books, paintings, graphics, busts, and handicrafts in an architecturally outstanding building from the 18th century: the Jägerhof Castle, built on behalf of Elector Carl Theodor of the Palatinate.
