Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Schirn Kunsthalle is the main venue for temporary art exhibitions, mainly of modern art, in Frankfurt, Germany. It opened in 1986. Historically, "Schirn" means an open-air stall for the sale of goods and such stalls were located here until the 19th century. The area was destroyed in 1944 during the Second World War and was not redeveloped until the building of the kunsthalle.

The Schirn Kunsthalle has 2000 square meters of exhibition space. It was designed by the architectural firm of Bangert, Jansen, Scholz & Schultes.
