This fantastic art museum displays Western works since the 1600s and has an especially impressive selection of modern art.

We spent about 3 hours here and enjoyed both the museum itself and the artwork. We spent most of our time in the 19th century and forward collections and had the opportunity to see some fine Chagall paintings and a stunning Van Gogh work painted the last year of his life. Many sculptures by Giacometti and a current exhibit on Matisse sculptures.

We went here after first visiting the Kunstmuseum and wished we had skipped that in favour of this one. There was just too much to see and we wanted more time and energy! Tickets were on the steeper side but were definitely worth it, there were several floors and many rooms with so many paintings it was hard to take it all in. Despite the text all being in German we could make out a few words and could imagine that if you are a fluent speaker you would be able to spend even longer here. The paintings were beautiful, many scenic landscapes and some fabulous works by Dutch artists including some very good portraits. I would recommend this gallery for those serious about art as there is a lot to get through, however anyone with even a slight appreciation could walk through just having a look and it would still take up a good chunk of time. Well worth it.

This art museum is the only art museum in Switzerland that focuses on non-European art, and has a substantial collection from Asia, America, Africa and Oceania. It's also located in one of Zürich's most beautiful parks.

This is one of Europe's hidden gems. Hidden, it has to be said, partly through its own fault. I talked to people who live in Zurich who did not even know about it and it is not well advertised or signposted. But it is really worth finding. The collection of early Chinese ceramics alone is stunning -- most of the pieces would be in any national museum that could get hold of them. But there are also fabulous collections of Japanese, pre-Columbian, Indian and African art. The displays are excellent, with labels in English as well as German and the design of the buildings (linking a new extension with a 19th century villa) is very pleasant to move around. The scale overall is ideal -- a good morning or afternoon with lunch in the cafe is perfect.
