Is Hamburger Bahnhof (Museum für Gegenwart) worth it solo?

Worth itSolo

Solo, Hamburger Bahnhof (Museum für Gegenwart) works.

The cavernous old station hall lets it show monumental contemporary work you can't fit anywhere else, with serious Warhol and Beuys holdings. The catch: it's contemporary art, full stop — divisive, sometimes baffling, and a wasted ticket if that's not your thing.
