Munich Holiday Tip: Excursion to Neuburg an der Donau
The Neuburg an der Donau State Gallery is the only one of the 12 branch galleries of the Bavarian State Painting Collections that exclusively presents Flemish Baroque paintings.
August 25 to November 14, 2025: Temporary closure of the Neuburg an der Donau State Gallery due to construction work.
Neuburg an der Donau. This is a must-see in Bavaria! Neuburg an der Donau Palace is a truly magnificent palace complex and was commissioned as the residential palace of the Principality of Palatinate-Neuburg, founded in 1505, by Count Palatine Ottheinrich (1502-1559), the first sovereign of the small principality—he later became Elector Palatine. Rubens, Brueghel, van Balen, Jordaens, and Snyders are exhibited at the Neuburg an der Donau State Gallery. Anyone who wants to see these unique works this summer should take advantage of the next 10 days and plan a visit to Neuburg. It is an opportunity to experience this State Gallery, the only one of the 12 branch galleries of the Bavarian State Painting Collections that exclusively displays Flemish Baroque paintings, once again before its temporary closure.
