The Kunsthaus is a meeting place and attraction for artists and art lovers. It is enthroned on Wiesbaden's Schulberg and consists of an old building and a new building opened in 2011. The new building houses the ground-floor art gallery, which is over 300 square meters in size, and the Artothek of the municipal art collection, which lends out works of art - paintings, prints, sculptures and objects - for a fee. The old building - which is currently being renovated - houses a further exhibition space (auditorium), artists' studios and the Visual Arts Department / Wiesbaden Cultural Office.
