Sponsoring Conservation and Research Projects

Your dedication—to preserve what we have and create new knowledge

The Städel Museum cooperates with experts at famous museums worldwide and is recognized internationally for its research in the areas of art history and art conservation alike. The conservation and restoration projects carried out in our workshops ensure the preservation of artworks—among them more than 100,000 drawings, prints and photographs as well as 3,500 paintings and sculptures—for the coming generations and their presentation in exhibitions with global reach.

Even if this important work takes place “behind the scenes”, it is of decisive importance for making 700 years of art accessible and experienceable for our visitors. Help us gain new insights with state-of-the-art technology and methods; help us unlock further enthralling secrets from works in our collection as well as valuable loans.

Support fascinating conservation and research projects such as the work on the Raphael drawings or the analysis of the “wrong foot” in Tischbein’s Goethe at the Städel Museum.
