The Ernst-Barlach-Museum Wedel is an artist 's museum that opened in 1987 and is dedicated to the work of Ernst Barlach . The museum is located in Barlach's birthplace in Wedel and, like the Barlach Museum in Ratzeburg, is operated by the Hamburg Ernst Barlach Society . The museum operates as a house for international art. There are exhibitions and events on contemporary art and literature as well as on other artists of classical modernism . In addition, it has a collection of sculptures, drawings, woodcuts, lithographs, letters and manuscripts from the hand of Ernst Barlach, which are shown worldwide.

The country doctor Georg Gottlieb Barlach met his future wife Louise Vollert in Satrup and married on March 2, 1869 in Wedel. The couple moved into the corner house on the market at Mühlenstrasse 1, where the museum is now located. Ernst Barlach was born there on January 2, 1870. The second child of the family was born there on July 11, 1871, before the family left Wedel in the direction of Schönberg / Mecklenburg in 1872 . The two-storey house in the classical style is owned by the city of Wedel and has been declared a “simple cultural monument” by the monument protection authority of the Pinneberg district.
