Alte Pinakothek
Overview
One of the oldest public galleries in the world, built by Leo von Klenze for the Wittelsbach collection. The largest Rubens collection anywhere fills its central halls, with Durer's self portrait, Leonardo's Madonna of the Carnation, and one of only two Fra Angelico Last Judgments. Bombed and restored, its skylit halls reset museum design.
