Koyupinar © Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen The collection of the Alte Pinakothek, one of the most significant in the world, encompasses over 700 artworks from the 14th to the 18th cen tu ries. Here, milestones of the European painting tradition join to form a survey, in unique concentration, that spans the development from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance and Baroque, through to the late Rococo period. Experience encounters with works by Dürer, Raphael, Leonardo, Titian, El Greco, Rubens, Rembrandt, Boucher and their contemporaries. The museum, contracted by the Bavarian King Ludwig I, was built by Leo von Klenze between 1826 and 1836 in the Neoclassical style, which at the time represented a new and pioneering effort in European museum architecture. Originally, the Alte Pinakothek was intended to make suf fi cient space available for the art collection of the House of Wittelsbach. Over and above this, King Ludwig I sought to use the construction of the Alte Pinakothek as a means of providing the general public access to his collection. In addition to the permanent presentation of outstanding works from the golden ages of German, Flemish, Dutch, French, Italian and Spanish painting, a host of temporary special exhibitions, guided tours and events make a visit worthwhile. Due to Renovation works to Improve Energy Efficiency until 2017 certain parts of the Alte Pinakothek will be temporarily closed.

The Museum Brandhorst supplements in particular the collection focus of the Pinakothek der Moderne in the modern and contemporary art areas. Along with the Lenbachhaus museum, the Glyptothek and the State Antiques Collection at Königsplatz, and the Museum of Egyptian Art, the Kunstareal Munich (art quarter), located between the city centre and Schwabing, provides visitors with an opportunity to experience the entire spectrum of art spanning two thousand centuries.
