With its top-class collection as well as attractive temporary exhibitions, the Thurgau Art Museum sets a highly contemporary counterpoint to the idyllic past of the historic rooms of Ittingen Charterhouse. Here, works by international artists such as Joseph Kosuth, Roman Signer or Jenny Holzer can be discovered. In the special atmosphere of the former Carthusian monastery, such works unfold a radiance of particular intensity. The "Ittingen Walk" by Janet Cardiff was developed especially for the Kunstmuseum Thurgau. The art of outsiders forms a significant focus of the museum's collection and exhibition activities. A top-class collection of works by Naive and Art Brut artists is grouped around the estate of the Thurgau Naive Adolf Dietrich, who is today considered one of the most important Swiss painters of the 20th century.
