Caricature and the art of drawing

The Wilhelm Busch Museum, the German Museum of Caricature and Drawing, is located in the centre of the Georgengarten. Here you can immerse yourself in the development of caricature art and explore the works of famous caricaturists from different eras. The caricature museum presents a variety of styles and techniques expressed in the caricatures and reveals the satirical messages behind the images.

In addition to the impressive permanent exhibition, the Wilhelm Busch Caricature Museum regularly hosts special exhibitions on various themes and artists. These exhibitions broaden the spectrum of caricatures and offer visitors the opportunity to discover different facets of caricature art. Exhibitions of great humorous, satirical artists such as Wilhelm Busch, Loriot and Jean-Jacques Sempé, from William Hogarth to Marie Marcks and Friedrich Karl Waechter can be seen here, as well as children's book illustrators such as Axel Scheffler and Eric Carle.

The Wilhelm Busch Museum also offers guided tours, interactive workshops and exciting events for children and adults. These programmes allow visitors to immerse themselves in the world of caricature in an entertaining and educational way.
