The Clemens Sels Museum Neuss is characterized by the particular diversity of its collection, which encompasses a broad spectrum of art and cultural history. The art collection occupies a prominent position . In addition to important paintings from the Middle Ages and the Dutch of the 17th century, the works of the Nazarenes, the Pre-Raphaelites and the Symbolists form a collection that is unique in Germany. The Rhenish Expressionists are also represented in the collection with outstanding paintings, graphics and stained glass. In addition, the museum has an extensive collection of paintings and sculptures of the naïve, which completely occupy an independent position within the art of the 20th century . In the field of contemporary art, color painting is another focal point of the collection. The other areas, which offer insights into prehistory and early history, the historical and economic development of the city of Neuss and the emergence of regional civic culture, are closed until further notice.
