The National Museum of Western Art exhibits mostly European artworks from the Renaissance to the early 20th century. There are paintings, drawings and prints from artists such as Veronese, Rubens, Dürer, Rembrandt, Manet, Renoir, Picasso, Miró, Delacroix, and Cezanne. The reinforced concrete Main Building was designed by Le Corbusier.
Access & Transport
The museum is located at the northeast corner of Ueno Park, together with several other museums. It is right next to Ueno Station with its multiple train lines and 2 metro lines (G, H). Accessibility info: https://www.nmwa.go.jp/en/information/accessibility.html
Instructions & Recommendations
We suggest combining this attraction with a walk in Ueno park and a visit to either a second museum or, for families, the Ueno Zoo.
