Why
the Tate Britain

museums are special

Tips & insights

The Tate Modern resides in an old power station. The tall smokestack jutting out of the building is a conspicuous reminder.


Quick rise to stardom

In 2000, the Tate Modern opened with fanfare. It didn't take long for its greatness to spread to art lovers around the world.


Famous painting

One of the Tate Britain's artistic treasures is the 18th century Strode Family painting by William Hogarth (see photo).


When to come

To avoid crowds, visit the Tate Britain and Tate Modern in the early morning or late afternoon.
