Welcome to our auction house!

After eleven auctions with extremely pleasing as well as sensational results, Lempertz auction house looks back on a successful spring season 2018. Following numerous events at our houses in Cologne, Berlin and Brussels as well as another Jewellery Auction in Monte Carlo, we are looking forward to the coming autumn season and are excited to see which objects we will have the honour of auctioning for you. The premiere of our Prussian Auction in Berlin was a great success and we are pleased to be able to repeat this event in spring 2019 at our Berlin auction house. We have already received some wonderful works for the coming season and invite you for an appraisal of your paintings or objects in one of our auction houses free of charge and without obligation.

Auction house with a long tradition

Kunsthaus Lempertz is a family-owned auction house with a long tradition. Our history reaches back to the late 18th century. We are not only very proud of this, but it also reinforces our passion for art.

The departments and auctions in our auction house include Old Masters, Decorative Arts, Antiques, Silver, Modern Art, Contemporary Art, Photography, Asian Art, African and Oceanic Art as well as Watches and Jewellery. In each department our experts are at your service and are happy to advise you.  Prior to every auction you also have the possibility to view the objects in our previews. Each department has at least one auction a year, most of them two. The exact dates can also be found here on the website.

If you wish to have your artwork evaluated or sold, wish to make a purchase, or are interested in a particular auction, please contact us!
