Fodor's Review:

The long, massive brick Alte Pinakothek was constructed by Leo von Klenze between 1826 and 1836 to exhibit the collection of old masters begun by Duke Wilhelm IV in the 16th century. By all accounts it is one of the world's great picture galleries. Among the European masterpieces here from the 14th to the 18th centuries are paintings by Dürer, Titian, Rembrandt, Rubens (the museum has one of the world's largest collections of works by Rubens), and two celebrated Murillos. Not to be missed.
