Museum of fine arts Berne: Heritage of the Gurlitt collection
The last will and Testament of the controversial art collector Cornelius Gurlitt is in the opinion of the higher regional court of Munich valid. So the million-dollar art collection can now go to the Kunstmuseum Bern, as the court of appeal announced on Thursday. The court did not allow the Revision.
The 2014 deceased Gurlitt, in whose Munich-Schwabing apartment and Salzburg, more than 1200 works of art were found, had been used as a alone the Kunstmuseum Bern heirs.
His cousin, Uta Werner questioned, but the will and raised himself entitled to the collection. You said that Gurlitt had not been in a state of mind to make a will. The family had produced an opinion from a well-known psychiatrist, had been made after gurlitt’s death. The impression has been given, the collector did not suffer from delusions and dementia.
“Cornelius Gurlitt was caught up in the idea that he needed to save his paintings from the Nazis, which were, in his delusion is still a threat,” said Uta Werner after the verdict on Thursday. “He saw the only way to do this in Switzerland, is undoubtedly an expression of this sad confusion.”

The court disagreed with this view. A report was given by the higher regional court of Munich in order, had confirmed the Testierfähigkeit gurlitt’s. Signs of madness or dementia have not been able to see the court, on the contrary, of the fact that Gurlitt had a short time before a life threatening Operation written a Testament to the fact that he was able to make rational decisions, informed the court on Thursday.
“It’s good that we all have now is clarity, who is taking up the legacy of Cornelius Gurlitt,” said state Minister for Culture Monika Grütters (CDU). “This decision helps us, the enlightenment of the art of discovery expeditious and transparent.” With the ruling, the way was finally free for the planned joint exhibition of the art Museum of Bern and the Federal art and exhibition hall in Bonn in the coming year.
Many of the images from gurlitt’s collection are still suspected to be Nazi-looted art. Shortly before his death, the collector had closed an agreement with the Federal Republic of Germany and agreed to let the history of its stocks by a task force to explore and also returns. Also with the Bern Museum in Berlin had agreed that all of those images will remain in Germany, where there is a suspicion that it might be stolen art. A panel of experts addresses then for two years with the origin of 499 images, but could be clarified only in the case of eleven works, the provenance beyond doubt. At 152 the works of the task force was able to identify only “low”, 143 “no provenance information”.
Whether the debate around the Gurlitt heritage is thus completed, remains open. Although the probate process can no longer be challenged, the circumstances of the Testament are considered to be undoubtedly. Before a civil court, and the cousin of gurlitt’s would complain still the possibility to be heir. About lawyers and the family want to discuss now.
