The largest art gallery in the city and one of the best you can see. It has a large variety of sculptures and paintings of different styles and time periods. The quality and details of everything is amazing, and everything gives you a feeling of awe. The building itself has its own historical value and you can appreciate how the past events such as the war affected the structure and the building itself. The employees are very kind and willing to help and have knowledge of the are that is on display. Very much worth the visit of this museum and the surrounding museums nearby. If you are visiting the city, make sure you save a day to visit all of them.

Really beautiful art museum, full of paintings and statues.
There are 3 floors and each of them has their unique theme.
Recommended for those who wants to see some awesome fantasy like paintings but also beautiful marble statues

The Old National Gallery is a great way to spend 4 hours or so and marvel at many of the exhibits. Need to join a short queue to hand in bags and coats first. The audio commentary brings some of the displayed artworks into focus and there are strategically placed, comfortable seating points to admire the exhibits. The works of Adolph Menzel were one of the highlights for me.

If you like paintings, here is the place to go for good German art plus some impressionists work, a number of Monet, one Van Gogh, Cezanne, Gauguin. I do recommend!

I would call this place 'Musée d'Orsay' in Berlin. I know lots of people who visit Paris go to art museums but not in Berlin. This place has beautiful impressionism paintings. If you are a fan of impressionism and you are going to Berlin, do not miss this museum. Definitely worth place to check out!

I loved this museum, the amount of romantic paintings from the 1800s is astonishing. ????️ Some great artworks from Caspar David Friedrich, Karl Friedrich Schinkel who is a master of lighting and of painting beautiful landscapes and also some realism pieces from Adolph Menzel. ????️

The best thing about this museum is that it's not stolen art, objects and artifacts from other countries but instead paintings from German artists. ????????

The Paul Gauguin exhibition was also really interesting, you learn a lot about France's colonization of Polynesia and the way Gauguin pictured it and what he thought of it. ????️

If there is one museum not to miss on Museuminsel in Berlin, it's this one. ⭐
