Wallraf-Richartz-Museum

Fodor's Review:

The Wallraf-Richartz-Museum contains paintings spanning the years 1300 to 1900. The Dutch and Flemish schools are particularly well represented, as is the 15th- to 16th-century Köln school of German painting. Its two most famous artists are the Master of the St. Veronica (whose actual name is unknown) and Stefan Lochner, represented by two luminous works, The Last Judgment and The Madonna in the Rose Bower. Large canvases by Rubens, who spent his youth in Köln, hang prominently on the second floor. There are also outstanding works by Rembrandt, Van Dyck, and Frans Hals.

  • Cost: EUR 9
  • Open: Tues. and Wed., Fri. 10-6, Thurs. 10-10, weekends 11-6
