Traveler reviews
Indrek P
★★★★★6 years agoWent to see the Pop Art exhibition - Warhol, Lichtenstein, Johns, Rauschenberg. Ticket 10€, worth it. This exhibition is open until 2020. MAAT is just across the street, it's convenient to visit both in one go.
Maria Burns
★★★★★2 years agoWe have been to this venue multiple times and love it as it is able to house large exhibitions. Today we saw Revolution, and it was fantastic! It is suggested you buy tickets in advance, and entry runs every hour. You can spend as much time as you like once inside. There is parking in a near by lot.
