Berlin art museums
Pergamonmuseum
Within the city of Berlin, there is a district called Museum Island, where you will find an incredible range of galleries and museums boasting art and artifacts from around the world.

Here, you can find famous European artwork such as “Moonrise at the Ocean” by Caspar David Friedrich, and “Cromwell in Battle of Naseby” by Charles Landseer.
Berlin street art
Once you have had your fill of the stunning collections housed in the beautiful listed buildings of Museum Island, it’s time to head outdoors. The history and art of Berlin, in our opinion, is best experienced on the streets of the city. Not only can you find pieces of the original Berlin Wall, complete with art from an extremely turbulent period in in the city’s history, but Berlin also offers plenty of neighborhoods and districts where the imagination has been allowed to run rife, and the inspiration of artistic minds coming together seems to give parts of Berlin its own heartbeat.

We also highly recommend a visit to the East Side Gallery, the most famous Berlin art wall, where you can view some incredibly famous pieces, such as “The Kiss” and “The Wall Jumper.” This truly is some of the best street art in Europe.
Lisbon art
Lisbon, perhaps like Bilbao, may not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of destinations for art in Europe, but it is unmissable nonetheless. Not only does it have some fantastic museums dotted around this hilly, sun-baked city, but the culture of street art here is utterly thriving. In fact, we would go as far to say that the city of Lisbon is in itself its own gallery. So, what are the best art museums in Lisbon?
Lisbon art museums
The National Museum of Contemporary Art

Lisbon street art
Lisbon is another incredible destination where art and the streets blend seamlessly to become one, until the artwork is as much a part of the city as the roads and tram tracks. As it is in many places where the urban art thrives so well, the best way to experience this element of the city is organically – by strolling the streets and keeping an eye out for any murals or iconic designs. This is the best way to experience such a major part of Lisbon’s culture. However, if you’re short on time and want to make sure you see the most famed spots for street art, the most unmissable place to go is the Avenida Conselheiro Fernando de Sousa, which offers up an incredible stretch of wall where an endless amount of artists have contributed in one way or another.
