Since its inauguration in 2003, Schaulager has become an important player in the local and international art world. Based on the unique and unprecedented idea of bridging the gap between museum and storage, the institution is entirely dedicated to preserving original works of art, ensuring their conservation, and making them accessible for teaching and research. School classes, groups of university students, researchers, and other visitors from all over the world daily take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy and study the collection of the Emanuel Hoffmann Foundation.
