Hey folks,
Pictures and more pictures, the Italian school was on the list and it was almost completely worked through.
It was exhilarating and at the same time an excellent expansion of the senses as well as a nice expansion of the mental hard drive.
Here are a few impressions, have fun, you can happily stroll and enjoy yourself for many hours here.

The Welt Museum is great. It's "anthropology" focused. Different cultures.
In my (limited) experience, you didn't really need to buy an advance ticket. But it was nice and convenient.
Their cafe happened to be excellent (limited selection but excellent quality.)
Two hours is a good amount of time.

The best museum that I have visited in My life. Thats because, beside The vast collection, including from some of The most important paitings in The world to middle age artefacts (paralel to The Louvre and The British Museum) The Kunsthistorisches itself is a jewel, with Very elaborared walls, I've neve seen anything like that.

Although I had the skip the line ticket it did not scan but I was still able to enter. There are a lot of artifacts covering so many historical periods and I saw most of it but I was not able to see everything.
