Access to the museum is only possible with appropriate mouth-nose covering (scarf, cloth, community mask or everyday mask). This rule does not apply to children who have not yet started school or to persons who for medical reasons are unable to wear mouth-nose covering. Visitors without a mask can purchase a disposable mask at the museum cash desk.

Visitors enter and leave the building exclusively via the respectively separated doors in the main entrance. All other entrances and exits will remain closed. An exception to this is the exit via the kupferbar; re-entering the museum is then only possible, however, through the main entrance. A guide system in the museum will ensure that direct, oncoming contact between visitors is avoided.

Admission tickets can be purchased at the museum cash desk. Card payment is preferred for all monetary transactions. The submission of your contact data before entering the exhibitions serves only for the possible tracking of infection transmission chains if necessary. This information will not be processed or stored by us, and will be deleted again 14 days after your visit.

The maximum number of persons allowed to be present simultaneously in the museum is separated into three areas as follows: in the Lobby area 20 persons, in the Gehry Galleries 70 persons, in the Lippold Gallery 15 persons.

All visitors can sanitize their hands after entering the museum at the sanitizer dispensers located in the entrance area and at the lockers. In addition, there are also dispensers in the toilets and in the Marta Atelier. Frequently touched surfaces in the public areas will be cleaned at regular intervals. Persons must maintain a distance of 1.5 metres from each other. In the waiting areas there are markings on the floor to facilitate this. There are also markings where paths cross to ensure proper distancing. For your protection and that of our staff we request absolute compliance with coughing and sneezing etiquette and regular hand washing. Please only visit the museum if you feel perfectly healthy.

The current exhibition “Navid Nuur – Hocus Focus” will be extended until 23.08.2020, and the exhibition “Glass and Concrete – Manifestations of the Impossible” until 04.10.2020. Please note that the extension of the exhibition durations will lead to changes in Marta’s annual program. Here you will find a current preview of the coming exhibitions.

Museum education programs in large groups will not be possible for the moment. With consideration of all the necessary precautionary measures, workshops and holiday games are now taking place in the Marta studio. Dates and more information about these offers can be found here.

Public tours in the exhibitions will not be possible for the moment. However, you have the possibility to book a private exhibition tour for max. 15 people. Bookings by e-mail (bildung @ marta-herford.de) or by telephone at 5221.994430-0.

Unfortunately, all events are cancelled until further notice. As soon as individual formats are made possible again in the course of easing the restrictions in public life we will inform you immediately.

The Marta Shop will reopen from July 1st, taking into account the hygiene concept, and can be accessed in the direction of the signposting system. There is, however, a special sales area with the most popular articles in a surprising #weareback-edition.

Please note that there may still be delays in handling online orders in the Marta-Shop
