They did a lovely luncheon in their private room. Each guest was served a plate with grilled herb chicken, poached salmon, and assorted salads. Along with ice cream or fruit, each table got a platter of freshly baked cookies and macarons. Highly recommended.

Beautiful museum with friendly staff. One of the nicer art museums that I have visited. It was almost empty on a sunny Sunday morning and that meant we had the galleries to ourselves. Not to be crass but the big inventory sale in the gift shop was greatly appreciated.

Big museum. Lots to see. I would recommend to go inside from the back side. First go down to the waterworks. I loved the way rooms are being recreated.

I actually only visited the main building of the museum, but maybe that's for the best because it was focused on renaissance to modern art (no ancient art).

Inside, I found impressionist paintings, medieval military armor and sections of buildings from Asia. On Wednesday after 5 PM, the cost is a simple donation. What a gem!

The museum's collection of the European art 1850-1900 is an absolute must. It features numerous paintings by Edouard Manet, Claude Monet (with quite a few real masterpieces), Paul Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Pissarro, Rousseau and others. The van Gogh's Wheat Field in the Rain is amazing. The works of Edvard Munch and Gustave Klimt shouldn't be missed. The beautiful paintings of... More
