Originally containing just German, Dutch and Italian fine art, the gallery wasn’t the most special of attractions, apart from the (Rembrandts, the Reubens, the Hals… just kidding. It was great but the New State Gallery made it better. Its architecture is controversial, its art is modern and masterful (Picasso, Miro, Beuys) and a visit is nothing less than absolutely wonderful. The permanent collections are awesome enough, but sometimes the temporary and travelling exhibitions can just blow you away. The ambience is great, the art is well curated and the layout very intuitive.
