Cologne - Wallraf-Richartz Museum and Ludwig Museum

 
To the east of the Roman-Germanic Museum in Cologne is a building that houses both the Wallraf-Richartz Museum and the Ludwig Museum. Between them they cover a wide range of European painting, with works by Rembrandt, Manet, Renoir, Leibl, Liebermann and Slevogt. The Wallraf-Richartz Museum is particularly strong in the work of the Cologne school. There are also collections of prints and of contemporary painting.

In the same building is the Agfa-Foto-Historama, a photographic museum displaying photographs and photographic apparatus since 1840.
