What a wonderful place to wander through for an hour or two. The earliest painings on display are 500 years old - it's wonderful to see the skill and techniques that existed so long ago.

And at the modern end of the time spectrum - there are bang-up-to-the-minute displays in a range of media including photography.

It's free to get in and see the core collection. What other great art museums across Europe offer that? You'll pay a few pounds to get into any special exhibitions.
