Muzeum Brandhorstových

“Yes, there is another Pinakothek :) Four museums under one roof: The Pinakothek der Moderne is one of Munich's biggest attractions and one of the most famous exhibition halls in the world. On an area of over 12,000 square meters, it unites four independent museums that cover various areas of art in a unique constellation: the Collection of Modern Art of the Bavarian State Painting Collections, the New Collection of the Munich Design Museum, the Architekturmuseum der TU München and the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung.”

“As one of the most important art galleries in the world, the Alte Pinakothek on Königsplatz shows European painting from the 14th to the 18th century. More than 700 paintings are exhibited in 19 halls and 47 cabinets. Since 1836, art enthusiasts have been walking through the impressive two-storey rooms created by the architect Leo von Klenze. The treasures of the Alte Pinakothek are kept by the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen. Together with the Neue Pinakothek, the Pinakothek der Moderne and the Museum Brandhorst, the Alte Pinakothek forms the inner core of the Munich art area.”

“The English Garden is stunning, all year long! It is the biggest city park in the world, even bigger than Central Park in NYC. In Summer the locals will take a bath here and hang out. Take a long walk and have a break at Seehaus (Biergarten). Another Biergarten is “Chinesischer Turm”, it is a little touristic though.”

“Visitors pass through the Neue Pinakothek like in a labyrinth. The tour follows a horizontal eight and ends at the starting point. In between there is an exciting overview of the epochs of European art from the Enlightenment to the beginning of Modernism. Van Gogh's Sunflowers, Spitzwegs Armer Poet, Piloty's 35 square metre triumphal procession of Germanicus and King Ludwig I in full Ornat are just a few examples of the nearly 400 works of European art from the late 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. (Attention: the Neue Pinakothek will be closed from 31.12.2018 for structural reasons)”

“The Lenbachhaus in Munich contains an art museum and is part of Munich's "Kunstareal" (the "art area").”
