The collections of this museum occupy the premises of the local castle. The total exhibition area reaches 1000 sq. M. In addition to the chateau premises, the interior courtyard with an area of 650 square meters, an open gallery on the ground floor and even the chateau chapel serve as exhibition halls. Temporary exhibitions are usually held in the courtyard, where young up-and-coming artists present their installations. The gallery displays sculptures from the collection of the Museum of Modern Art. The chapel is given to young talents as a place for experimental art projects and the placement of original objects, which cannot be outdoors. By the way, the castle chapel is remarkable even without these art objects. It is decorated with frescoes from the Baroque era. The painting of the church was made by the painter Josef Ferdinand Fromiller. The collection of the Museum of Modern Art is located in 14 rooms of Klagenfurt Castle. In addition to permanent exhibitions, temporary thematic ones are often held here. The museum also organizes creative evenings where you can talk with artists, listen to an interesting lecture or discuss your favorite work with art lovers. The pride of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Carinthia is considered to be a large collection of art and sculptural works by contemporary Austrian and foreign artists. The works of art on display in the museum date back to the 20th and 21st centuries.
