Rudolph Tegner F. 1873 - D. 1950
Tegners interesse for kunst opstod ved mødet med den antikke kultur, da han som 15-årig besøgte Akropolis. Denne antikke verden optog ham gennem hele hans kunstneriske liv og mange af hans skulpturer forestiller græske guder.
Billedhuggeren Rudolph Tegner har selv været arkitekt og bygherre af Tegners Museum. Museet og den omkringliggende skulpturpark rummer 335 af hans værker.
Rudolph Tegner ligger begravet under gulvet i museets midterste sal. Hans kone Elna Tegner ligger i en urne i soklen på statuen "Apollo" også i den midterste sal.
