I had expected more - there were a few really interesting exhibits, otherwise there were too many copies to see. Even if the Soviets were supposedly at fault because the art was confiscated after 1945. It's not worth visiting again...

It was cool, lots of fun photos taken. Nice experience, only drawback it's quite small so you're through in 20-30 minutes. All in all, a recommendable family outing.
