Famous masterpieces dating back to the 15th century feature alongside modern contemporary pop art at this free museum.

A short drive outside Inner Harbor takes you to the Baltimore Museum of Art. Internationally renowned artworks are housed in this Roman temple-themed building. A contemporary art wing featuring the work of Warhol, the Matisse collection and works from famous 19th-century artists are just some of the attractions that entice people to visit time and time again. Beautiful gardens house even more works outside.In 1914 a single painting started what was to become the Baltimore Museum of Art. Shortly after, further paintings were added, some of which included “Rinaldo and Armida” by Anthony van Dyck. After World War II more internationally recognised pieces were donated. Works by artists such as Cézanne, Gaugin, Picasso and Matisse were soon adorning the walls. Calribel and Etta Cone who spent their lives collecting art donated these works to the Baltimore Museum of Art. It was then named The Cone Collection in their honour. At BMA you can take a virtual tour of their apartments that are full to the brim with artworks.Despite its humble beginnings, Baltimore Museum of Art has grown exponentially, now housing over 90,000 pieces. It has the single largest collection of works by Henri Matisse in the world. Masterpieces by many great European artists are featured here, including Renoir and Van Gogh. In the contemporary wing you will see many fascinating more modern works of art.There's lots to keep the kids entertained too with art workshops, audio tours and costume packs. Bring a packed lunch and sit outside where you can see copies of work by Henry Moore and Rodin. If you'd prefer, make a reservation in the restaurant which serves excellent cuisine.Getting to Baltimore Museum of Art is hassle-free with bus stops and car parks nearby. Entry is free although some exhibitions may incur a fee. BMA is open Wednesday to Sunday. Take a look at the museum's website for more details.
