Story · Pinakothek der Moderne

  • en
  • nl

You're standing at the Pinakothek der Moderne, on Barerstraße, right in the middle of Munich's museum district, the Kunstareal. Take a look at the façade. Clean, straight lines, mostly white and grey concrete. Big windows cut through the walls, and tall, slender columns hold up a wide canopy roof. No palace frills here. The building itself tells you this place is all about modern art.
