    Very interesting especially if you book a guided tour with explanation. I also love the Warhol collection 👍

  • Nils Paellmann

    ★★★★★11 months ago

    Phenomenal museum with fantastic collection. The highlight are clearly the two Cy Twombly rooms, Untitled (Roses) and the Lepanto series. The permanent collection also contains great artworks by Andy Warhol. Nice museum building by Sauerbruch Hutton. Great museum bookstore.
