Berlin's premier contemporary art museum occupies a stunning converted 19th-century railway station with soaring iron-and-glass halls. The permanent collection includes major works by Beuys, Warhol, Kiefer, and Twombly, and the temporary exhibitions are consistently ambitious. It's far less crowded than the Museum Island institutions, making it a genuine pleasure to visit. The Rieckhallen extension adds even more industrial-chic exhibition space.
