In the "Kulturhof Flachsgasse", the "Kunstverein" and the "Städtische Galerie" offer temporary and special exhibitions on around 700 m² of exhibition space; readings and cultural events round off the program. The architecture of the gallery is impressive. The generously glazed main foyer with glass elevator and the open gallery form a platform for encounters between art, artists and those interested in art.
