Perched in one of the most stunning pockets of San Francisco, the Legion of Honor has been a magnet since 1924, luring curious masses and swooning couples to its romantic site in Lincoln Park. A historical monument at Land’s End—where its Doric columns are flanked by glistening blue waters, perfectly manicured greenery, and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge—the museum’s exterior reflects the stunning world-class works that fill its walls.
Explore the Legion of Honor and go back in time, and find yourself up close and personal with 17th-century Holland. Culled from the private collection of Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo, the current Dutch and Flemish Masterworks exhibition spans impeccable portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and cultural scenes of the period. With art serving as time capsule, let highly skilled, invisible brush strokes by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, and Hendrick Avercamp take you back in time to an influential era that inspired early American society.
With a stately bronze cast of Rodin’s The Thinker serving as your friendly greeter at the museum entrance, immerse yourself in picturesque architecture and landscaping that has made this locale a photographer’s dream—as well as a wedding mecca. A visual feast and consummate playground for children and adults alike, the horseshoe-shaped museum serves as a magnificent display of imperial images from Greek, Roman, Spanish, and French history, while its rotating exhibits give rare glimpses into famous international collections.

"How can you give this museum anything less than five stars. It's majestic and although I'm not an art expert, it's amazing to see all the different works they bring in. We came here on a Sunday morning and they had a pipe organ concert in the front hall. It was so mesmerizing!" - Yelp Reviewer Sana S., San Francisco, CA, 7/11/11

"The location of this building alone is breathtaking. The artwork inside this museum is awe inspiring with works of Rembrandt, Monet, Matisse, and Picasso. Although this space isn't as large as other museums I've traveled to I could walk around these grounds for hours getting lost in each piece. " - Yelp Reviewer Kevin J., San Francisco, CA, 5/9/11
