National Gallery Berlin, Art museum on Museum Island, Berlin, Germany

The National Gallery displays European paintings and sculptures spanning from the 18th to the early 20th century across multiple exhibition spaces within Museum Island.

Founded in 1861 following a donation by banker Johann Heinrich Wagener, the museum expanded its collection through royal patronage and private contributions.

The gallery maintains extensive collections of German Romantic art, French Impressionism, and early Modernist works by artists like Caspar David Friedrich and Edouard Manet.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, with regular guided tours available in multiple languages and reduced admission for students.

The collection occupies five separate locations across Berlin, including the Alte Nationalgalerie's neoclassical building and Mies van der Rohe's glass pavilion.
