In three separate but connected buildings on the Glockengießerwall, Kunsthalle Hamburg is one of Germany's top art galleries.
Highlights include numerous altarpieces, works by local artists of the 14th century, and Dutch masters of the 16th and 17th centuries.
Also of note are its fine collections of 19th-century German and French paintings, plus substantial modern and contemporary art collections. Tours and fun programs for children are available.
Another notable art collection is housed at the Deichtorhallen, one of the largest galleries of contemporary art and photography in Europe.
