Alte Staatsgalerie
Originally, the classicist building of the Alte Staatsgalerie was also the home of the Royal Art School. The building was built in 1843.[1] After being severely damaged in World War II,[2] it was rebuilt in 1945–1947 and reopened in 1958.[3]
It houses the following collections:
- Old German paintings 1300–1550
- Italian paintings 1300–1800
- Dutch paintings 1500–1700
- German paintings of the baroque period
- Art from 1800–1900 (romanticism, impressionism)

The Neue Staatsgalerie, a controversial[4] architectural design by James Stirling, opened on March 9, 1984 on a site right next to the old building. It houses a collection of 20th-century modern art — from Pablo Picasso to Oskar Schlemmer, Joan Miró and Joseph Beuys. The building layout bears resemblance to Schinkel's Altes Museum, with a series of connected galleries around three sides of a central rotunda. However, the front of the museum is not as symmetrical as the Altes Museum and the traditional configuration is slanted with the entrance set at an angle.[5]
