The Morsbroich Museum ({{lang-de|Museum Morsbroich}}) or Morsbroich Castle Municipal Museum (Städtisches Museum Schloss Morsbroich) is a German museum of modern art situated in Leverkusen, 20 km north of Cologne. HistoryFormerly a Baroque schloss named Schloss Morsbroich, it is now a municipal museum for the exhibition of modern and contemporary art. It also provides the setting for theatrical productions and other cultural events under the title of "Morsbroich Summer". In 1948, the schloss was leased to the city of Leverkusen. Since 1951, it has been used as an exhibition space. In 1974, it was sold to the city of Leverkusen and subsequently renovated in order to permanently function as the city's museum of modern art. The museum was the first one in North Rhine-Westphalia explicitly exhibiting works by famous international post-war painters, sculptors and installation artists. It presented artists such as Yves Klein, Lucio Fontana, Louise Nevelson, Andy Warhol, Burhan Dogancay and Robert Motherwell. During the last 50 years, it collected 400 paintings and sculptures and 5000 prints by contemporary artists. In 2009, the museum was named "museum of the year" by the German section of the International Association of Art Critics. A report by KPMG published in February 2016 suggested closing the museum to reduce costs.[1] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://theartnewspaper.com/news/news/gerhard-richter-slams-proposed-closure-of-germany-s-museum-morsbroich-/|title=Gerhard Richter slams proposed closure of Germany's Museum Morsbroich|last=Harris|first=Gareth|date=29 February 2016|publisher=The Art Newspaper}} External links{{commons category|Schloss Morsbroich}}
