About Tate Modern

Housed in a former power station on the banks of the River Thames, Tate Modern is the United Kingdom's flagship museum for international modern and contemporary art. Visitors come to experience monumental installations inside the cavernous Turbine Hall and explore galleries featuring masterworks by artists such as Picasso, Warhol, and Rothko. The upper viewing levels also provide sweeping panoramic vistas across the river toward St Paul's Cathedral.
