Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum
Danubiana
The Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum, one of the most romantic museums of modern art in Europe, is situated 20 kilometers south of Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic. It was founded by Gerard Meulensteen of Eindhoven, a Dutch collector and art patron, and Vincent Polakovič, a Slovak gallerist.
The Danubiana’s unique location on the borders of Slovakia, Hungary and Austria, and its harmonious combination of museum architecture and the surrounding Danube River landscape offer visitors unique views of the artwork as well as the flora and fauna which change with the seasons.
The sculpture park features the works of renowned artists such as El Lissitzky, Magdalena Abakanowicz, Jim Dine, Hans van de Bovenkamp, Jozef Jankovič, Arman, J. C. Farhi, Vladimír Kompánek, Rudolf Uher and others.
The museum roof offers a unique view of Bratislava, the Small Carpathians and the majestic Danube River, especially at sunset. The most prestigious tourist guides and social portals recommend that visitors take a tour of the museum with its magnificent extension which was completed in 2014 with the generous support of the Government of the Slovak Republic.
