Visitors to the popular arts and crafts Christmas market at Museum Schloss Moyland can expect a lively market atmosphere with authentic handicrafts in decorated huts – a concept that attracts guests from near and far to the Lower Rhine region. The result is a special experience with an extraordinary combination of diverse arts and crafts and the incomparable ambience of the historic castle and gardens of Museum Schloss Moyland. At twilight, the atmosphere is almost festive, with the park illuminated by numerous fairy lights and torches. 

Tickets are available at a price of €10 per person here in advance or from 10 to 14 December 2025 directly at the entrance to the Christmas market.

OPENING HOURS
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 1 p.m.–9 p.m.   
Saturday 11:00 am–9:00 pm
Sunday 11:00 am–8:00 pm

For the first time, our Moylandshop has invited five selected designers from Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia to a MOYLAND DESIGN MARKET. The creative minds will present their products in a separate room, right next to the Christmas market in the castle park, and will be there in person. What they have in common is their passion for good design with practical value and for the sustainable manufacture of their products, which are otherwise only available in selected locations. 

The MOYLAND DESIGNMARKT is accessible without an admission ticket and will be open in the glass pavilion at the central car park of Museum Schloss Moyland from 12 to 14 December 2025 during the arts and crafts Christmas market. 

As part of the interdisciplinary research project Joseph Beuys and National Socialism – A Laboratory Space, Museum Schloss Moyland is hosting a symposium that will examine Joseph Beuys in the context of National Socialism and his later engagement with this period. The symposium represents a significant contribution to the current discussion in research and contextualises the innovative and participatory laboratory space on this topic, which has been set up within the permanent exhibition at the museum since 30 March 2025.

The aim of the symposium is to critically reflect on the socio-political and artistic dimensions of Beuys' biography, in particular his role in National Socialism and the question of his later positioning and engagement with this past. Both academic and artistic perspectives will be heard in an interdisciplinary dialogue. Discussion rounds will offer the audience the opportunity to ask questions. 

Cost for one day: €15 including museum admission and coffee/tea (during breaks)
Cost for both days: €25 including museum admission and coffee/tea (during breaks)

Registration by 18 January 2026 at besucherservice@moyland.de, stating your name, address and telephone number. 

In an interview with our Artistic Director and Curator Dr Antje-Britt Mählmann, Marina Abramović talks about the MAI (Marina Abramović Institute). The exhibition Marina Abramović and MAI in dialogue with Joseph Beuys has been extended until 11 January 2026. You can watch the entire video in full length in the exhibition hall at Museum Schloss Moyland. 

Dr Antje-Britt Mählmann, Serge le Borgne, Maria Stamenković Herranz and Cristiana Cott Negoescu were guests on Claudia Linzel's podcast Die Leichtigkeit der Kunst (The Lightness of Art). In this podcast episode, the four provide insights into the curatorial idea, the creation of the residency – and what happens when performance enters into a relationship with space, history and the audience.
