- Museum Quarter of Munich
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Maxforstadt had not yet entered the city limits of Munich. It was here that in 1836, on the orders of the Bavarian King Ludwig, an art gallery was built, which laid the foundation for the Museum Quarter of Munich. The collection of paintings collected at that time was so extensive that it did not fit in the gallery building, so the collection was divided and the New Pinakothek appeared.
The modern Museum Quarter or the area of Munich's art includes eleven museums and exhibition venues. In the Old Pinakothek a collection of paintings by European masters from the thirteenth to the eighteenth century is collected. In the neighborhood in New Pinakothek you can see the masterpieces of European painting and sculpture of the next period - the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. And, finally, the Pinakothek of Modernity presents a collection of world painting, sculpture and photography from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day, it also contains a collection of works of design, graphics and architecture of the present. The Pinakothek of Modernity combines four major museums in Munich: the State Museum of Applied Art, the Collection of Modern Art, the State Assembly of Graphics and the Architectural Museum of Munich Technical University. Dürkheim Palace or the “Pinakothek Palace” is not only an exhibition area for art objects, but also a training center where many art history programs have been developed for both adults and children. The Turkish Gate is an exhibition area where contemporary free artists organize exhibitions of paintings. Nearby is the Brandhorst Museum, which houses a collection of contemporary art from the private collection of Udo and Anette Brandhorst. In Glyptotek there is a collection of ancient Roman and ancient Greek sculptural works. The range of works covers a period of more than 12 centuries - from archaic to the culture of late Rome. The Art Museum located in the Lenbach House includes works by artists exclusively from the Munich school, who created their works in the 18-19 centuries. The State Antique Assembly represents the ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan vases, jewelry art and the art of small forms. The collection of the State Graphic Assembly contains a collection of world graphics from the Renaissance to the present. The Museum of Replicas of Classical Sculpture presents many plaster-replicas of antique Greek and Roman statues.
