The Thyssen is the perfect place to indulge in artistic brilliance. It houses work from some of the most renowned artists in Europe from the 13th to the 20th century. Being the second-largest private collection in the world, it consists of movements not represented in state-owned collections, such as Impressionism, Fauvism, German Expressionism, and the experimental avant-garde movements of the early 20th century. Once you book your tickets, you shall receive an email that shall contain your entry passes to the temporary and permanent exhibits of the museum. All you have to do is show it at the entrance on your mobile and you shall gain access to the museum without waiting in line! The temporary exhibits have limited entry and visitors are admitted at the assigned time every 15 minutes.

In the permanent collections, see works like Jesus Among the Doctors by Albrecht Dürer, Waterloo Bridge by André Derain, Les Vessenots in Auvers by Vincent van Gogh, and Portrait of Henry VIII of England by Hans Holbein the Younger.
