Museum day planner

Pick a city and your time; get the famous paintings in gallery order.

Times are your own settings, not museum estimates. Allow extra time for tickets, security and crowds, and check each museum's opening hours and whether a painting is on view before you go.

How it works

Pick a city and how much time you have. We list every famous painting on ArtCentral in that city's museums, sorted by gallery number where the museum publishes one, and add up the time using your own minutes per painting and travel time between museums. Untick a museum to drop it from the plan, then print it.

Gallery numbers and opening hours change, and paintings go on loan. Check the museum's website on the day you visit.

Frequently asked questions

Does the planner include opening hours?

No. Hours change by season, so check each museum's website. The times in the plan are only the minutes you choose per painting and between museums.

Why is a painting missing?

The planner only lists paintings that have a page on ArtCentral. Museums hold many more works worth seeing.
