Werner Berg MuseumThe Werner-Berg-Museum offers a representative overview of the lifetime work of the artist Werner Berg, born in Wuppertal Elberfeld. The museum is housed in a centuries old building at the Main Market in Bleiburg, whose expressively revitalised basic structure provides for the perfect placement of his works of art. A very successful symbiosis between the modern stylistic elements and the historic structure of the building itself makes a visit to the museum a very special.
