About Alte Pinakothek
Alte Pinakothek is a museum. Location: Munich, Munich, Urban District.
The Alte Pinakothek (German: [ˈʔaltə pinakoˈteːk] , Old Pinakothek) is an art museum located in the Kunstareal area in Munich, Germany. It is one of the oldest galleries in the world and houses a significant collection of Old Master paintings.
