The Alte Nationalgalerie, home of 19th century art, forms one of the five columns of the National Gallery. The remaining four are the Neue Nationalgalerie (New National Gallery) with art of the 20th century, the Museum Berggruen with works of early 20th century modernism, the Hamburger Bahnhof – Museum für Gegenwart – Berlin with contemporary art, and Friedrichswerdersche Kirche (Friedrichswerder Church) with 19th century sculptures. The Alte Nationalgalerie is regarded as a comprehensive collection of art of the era between the French Revolution and the First World War, between Classicism and Secessions. The harmonious relationship between the museum building and its collection is unique: designed under the auspices of Heinrich Strack according to plans by August Stüler, the gallery was built in the years 1867 to 1876: the collection it houses today, one of the most beautiful of its kind, originates from the same century. Hence, a tour through the museum offers a profound insight into the art of the 19th century.
