Art gallery. A large collection of over 1500 works of European art with some well-known stuff that will have been seen on British TV. Fantastic altarpieces by Rogier van der Weyden, a couple of gorgeous Vermeers, an outstanding miniature by van Eyck. I could go on and on. An audio guide is included in the admission price. Its greatest attraction is how quiet it is. We went on a Friday afternoon and were ushered out at closing time after spending four hours there. There are plenty of seats if you fancy a break and you can spend as much time as you like looking at each picture, there are no crowds. It's an amazing experience compared with the hustle and bustle of London's National Gallery.
Matthiakirchplatz 8, behind the church, a 6-10 minute walk from Potsdamerplatz. The 200 bus stops not far from the entrance.
