You could be forgiven for assuming that the Old National Gallery (Alte Nationalgalerie) would be a stuffy and sleepy kind of place, but that is resolutely not so. A host of temporary exhibitions keep the content fresh and interesting, and the imaginative approach taken (a recent exhibit was "Genius and Madness in Art", for example) helps keep everything relevant to modern times. If you're a bit more conservative and would rather limit yourself to uncomplicated viewing of classic paintings than have no fear: Monet, Manet, Renoir, Degas, and Cézanne (to name but a few) are all here waiting.
