Step into the Alte Pinakothek, Munich's grand home of Old Master painting. Wander through roughly 900 works across the galleries, resting on the seating and following the audio guide from one century to the next.

📖

Full description

The Alte Pinakothek is one of Munich's major art museums, housed in a large neoclassical building in the city's museum quarter. Around 900 paintings are on display at any one time, spanning many centuries and subjects, with a strong focus on the old masters.

Reviewers note that much of the work carries religious motifs, with a few Van Gogh pieces among them. Seating in the galleries and an audio guide make slow, thorough visits comfortable, and visitors report anything from ninety minutes to several hours inside.

Entry is considered good value.

Reviews

Very beautiful collection with pieces from many different centuries. There are many different subjects to admire and I recommend you spend at least 1.5 hours for a leisurely visit. There are seats in almost every gallery if you want to take a break. I recommend visiting on a Sunday so you can take advantage of the €1…
