Gallery of fine arts in Cheb, Art museum in central square, Cheb, Czech Republic.
Description
The Gallery of Fine Arts in Cheb occupies two adjoining buildings on the central square and displays Czech artworks spanning multiple centuries. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, and other artistic forms that reflect the region's creative heritage across different periods.
History
The gallery was established to preserve and display artistic works from the region, particularly medieval sculptures created in the surrounding area. Over time the institution expanded to include modern and contemporary artworks alongside these historical pieces.
Culture
The museum regularly arranges concurrent temporary exhibitions that connect local artistic expressions with broader Czech cultural movements.
Practical
Visiting both buildings is straightforward since they sit side by side and can be explored together as one experience. An adjacent Retromuseum displaying design objects from a specific historical period can be accessed with a combined ticket.
