ImpressionismXExprrssionism exhibition was very moving. Galley contains wide collection of Shinkel, Menzel , Caspar David Froedrich and others

Viktoria Ejenäs

Amazing selection of art by mostly, but not only, German artists active during the 19th century. Very nice space. Open and lets you get very close to the artwork.

Florian Atkins-Winston

An absolute architectural wonder whose collection can rival with Orsay and the Musée de la Ville de Paris (3e). Again one of those museums with are cheap for students/praktikants. Thank you.

Enzo Martinelli

Amazing collection of German painters , also including some major French Impressionists

Jindra Bučan

I have seen an awesome exposition of Rembrandt Bugatti's sculptures there. The whole place looks so nice and it won't take you a whole day to see everything there.

Katrina

Beautiful grounds. Awesome area to take photos. Stroll around.

Freefri A.

A sensitively restored Greek-temple building by August Stüler, the Alte Nationalgalerie is an elegant setting for an exquisite collection of 19th-century European art .

Oya Tukel

Awesome paintings . One of the best museums !

Scott Anstett

Coat Check and upstairs lockers get crowded/used. More lockers are located downstairs by gift store .

VictoriaG

Rich collection of German artists and a big room with French impressionists (on ground floor). Good navigation.

Jakob C.

Wonderful Renoir painting on the second floor.

Ieva Ķeruka

5EUR adm. for students. You can't bring a coat or bag (safety box - 1EUR). Decent collection of works mainly by German painters + sculptures . Don't go too close, though, you will set off the alarm.

Hop Hey Lalaley

There are some stars in the collection, but overall - not super impressive. Take an audio guide to understand more. If you don't have a lot of time - you can skip this museum and visit Pergamon

Bijan Kafi

Get the annual ticket if you plan to come more often. At just 40€ it's a ridiculously good offer compared to the regular 8€ entrance fee (and the fact that it gives you access to all state museums in

Jennifer Ashton

Beautiful paintings by Menzel and roomful of Courbets & Constables on the ground floor. Great works by Friedrich upstairs.

Danh Hoang

You’ll need at least 2-3 hours. The audio guide comes with ticket purchase of 10€

Frank

The location and the paintings are really Berlin.

Aleksandra Dudek

Great collection of German paintings and some French artworks as well

Emilija Blaskeviciute

Great museum if XIX and the begining of XX century art is what you love

Mikey

Theres a room with just pen a pencil drawings of animals... I found that the most impressive. It can get boring if you're not really "artsy".

Lina

Breathtaking architecture with amazing art pieces. Enjoyed this one too much.

Heisen Berg

I really enjoyed the Impressionists and Romantics

Andrew S

Really enjoyed the paintings on the top floor.

Δήμητρα Δρογγίτη

There are also paintings of famous artists like mone and degas!

Катерина Плесюк

German realism is not so charming, but hey, you get Van Gogh!

Julie Avra

Stunning building and stunning collection

Jezreel Cerbito

There is an entire room filled with C.D. Friedrich's works <3

Artemi Morningstar

some interesting exhibits but largely missing explanatory text. As in the case of the Pergamon museum , it is unacceptable for a world class museum to only provide accompanying information in german.

Nastya Chekryzhova

18 and 19 centuries artworks

EliVillasante

For a national gallery , not such a big thing. Pergamonn and NeuesMuseum are more worth the visit

Serra Yenturk

If you purchase the WelcomeBerlin card, all the museums are "gratis" and no queues!!

Michelle B

Beware that you can't bring a coat or a purse in with you. Might be no big deal to some, but as tourists with cameras and some other items I didn't want lost, I had to stuff my pockets.

Rene Fidel

Free entry on Sunday

Kira Aguilar

This are three museums in one.

Sean Wilkie

Stunning collection

Matas

A place to dream. Slow down, breath in the German romanticism, nurture your Sehnsucht, Wanderlust and Weltschmerz

Deanna Zandt

The statue of Nike/Victoria here served as the model for my foot tattoo .

Vassilis N

No queue for tickets if you want to buy one for the whole island

Sebastian Vaisov

Not bad, though I expected not only German painters

Lev Noise

Böcklin waits you!

Anna Gushchina

Too small collection of french impressionnistes.

Mohamed Arbi Mehrez

Interessante!!

Julia Lu

Mediocre museum with mediocre art , they don’t accept student IDs that do not have an end date. Don’t think it was worth the 10 euros

Louvre müzesine rakip,dünyanın birçok yerinden toplama,harika eserler..

Şakir Çakın

Güzel ve heybetli bir bina. Tüm müzeleri bir biletle gezebilirsiniz. Ona göre bir bilet almanız yeterli.

Kassy Daniel

Sehenswerte Gemälde und Skulpturen des 19./Anfang 20. Jhd. überwiegend regionaler Künstler auf 3 Etagen . Ich habe mit Audioguide und Blick auf alle Ausstellungsstücke 4-5h gebraucht.

Hausmeister Willi

Audio-Guides sind kostenlos, daher mitnehmen und mehr verstehen.

Cemalettin Malgaç

Berlin Museumplatz’ın Louvre’u diyebiliriz. Alman resim sanatı ağırlıklı eserleriyle doyurucu bir müze . Ayrıca bahçesi çok şık ????????

Martin S.

So viel Kunst auf mehreren Etagen . Beeindruckendes Gebäude .
