The Insel Hombroich Foundation is a German art foundation based in Neuss . 'Broich' is not oi spoken, but the 'o' by the 'i' stretched so that it is to talk as a Brooch.

The non-profit cultural foundation of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia came into being in November 1996 through the joint establishment of Karl-Heinrich Müller , the Rhein-Kreis Neuss and the city ​​of Neuss . There was also financial help from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The first chairman was Wolfgang Schulhoff .

As it sees itself, the foundation is the sponsor of a “cultural space” or “cultural laboratory”, in which the Museum Insel Hombroich , which has been in existence since 1982, comes together with nature, buildings and collection items, with several studios both in the museum area and at the neighboring Hombroich missile station .

In 2020 the foundation was awarded the Great Culture Prize of the Sparkassen-Kulturstiftung Rheinland .
