The Städel Museum is one of the most significant art museums in Germany. Established in 1815, it is considered to be the first museum foundation in Germany. The museum houses masterpieces from the Middle Ages to the present. The Liebieghaus has a sculpture collection of the highest quality, providing an overview of 5,000 years of sculpture history from ancient Egypt to classicism.
Johann Friedrich Städel founded the oldest civic foundation in Germany with his will in 1815, the Städelsche Kunstinstitut. To this day, the citizens of Frankfurt and beyond follow his example and support the Städel Museum as sponsors, patrons, or donors. The role of the Engagement department is to demonstrate the diverse opportunities for support to the museum’s patrons and inspire them to contribute to important projects of the institution.
Financial support from foundations, primarily for our exhibitions, extensive educational and outreach programs, and restoration projects, is a central pillar of the museum’s financing.
