The photo archives comprise photographs of the Kollwitz family with images of grandparents, parents, siblings and other family members, photographs of the artist’s places of residence and work, documentation on her exhibitions and studios as well as photographic portraits from all phases of her life.
The Photo Archive are reference archives. Research is only possible after prior arrangement.
