Lenbachhaus, Art museum in Munich, Germany
The Lenbachhaus occupies a Florentine-style villa with copper-aluminum alloy tubes adorning its modern wing and indirect natural light illuminating the galleries.
Franz von Lenbach commissioned architect Gabriel von Seidl to construct this residence between 1887 and 1891, which later transformed into Munich's municipal art gallery in 1924.
The museum presents an extensive collection of Der Blaue Reiter art movement, including works by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc from the early twentieth century.
The museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, with extended hours until 20:00 on Thursdays, and includes audio guides with admission.
A three-story lobby features an installation by Olafur Eliasson that creates light patterns through a clerestory window, forming the social center of the building.
