Description

The Alte Nationalgalerie (Old National Gallery) rises up over Museum Island like an ancient Greek temple. The imposing, neoclassical edifice was designed and built by architect F.A. Stüler between 1866-76 and contains an extensive collection of works by both German and international artists from the 18th and 19th centuries. Visitors can admire masterpieces by French impressionists such as Cézanne, Manet and Renoir, the surreal works of Van Gogh and Münch, and sculptures by the likes of Schadow and Rodin.
