Description
The Neue Pinakothek is an art museum in Munich housing European art from the 18th to early 20th centuries within a modern building. The exhibition halls span multiple levels and present artworks organized by artistic movements and periods.
History
Founded in 1853 by King Ludwig I to collect and display European artworks, the institution reflects his vision for art in Bavaria. The original structure was destroyed during World War II, and the current building reopened in 1981 with a contemporary design.
