It includes pieces by Monet, Picasso and Rousseau, among others. In addition, there are regular special exhibitions with other top artists. The pieces are showcased in the museum building designed by Italian star architect Renzo Piano. The modern structure stands in an English-style park with a historic villa, ancient trees and lotus ponds. It is among the most beautiful museums in the world. The building elegantly blends in with the landscape and its extensive windows offer views of the park, corn fields, grazing cattle and sheep, and the vineyards on the foothills of the Black Forest.
