Worthwhile museum to visit. Previous reviewers have written excellent reports and photos so will not repeat. There is a nice quadrangle garden that you can access with a few outside exhibits. Easy free parking. Go and experience the Zuhl.

And to make things better is free. Definitely worth checking out.…
