Kunstgewerbemuseum: Exhibitions

The Kunstgewerbemuseum at Schloss Pillnitz will remain closed in 2025. This is due to preparations for the structural refurbishment of the buildings. You are welcome to visit the exhibitions of the Kunstgewerbemuseum at other locations.

This year, the themes and objects of the Kunstgewerbemuseum can be seen in our special exhibitions at other locations in Dresden and at our cooperation partners.
