Overview
Housed in the former Bankside Power Station (decommissioned 1981, renovated by Herzog & de Meuron in 2000), Tate Modern is one of the world's great modern art museums. The vast Turbine Hall hosts a major installation commission each year, and the collection spans 20th- and 21st-century masters including Picasso, Matisse, Warhol, and Rothko. The Millennium Bridge connects it directly to St Paul's Cathedral, making it easy to combine both on foot. Free permanent collection (special exhibitions extra). 10-minute walk from Southwark or St Paul's tube stations.
