What you'll see
A calm, grey-brick art museum where medieval religious art hangs beside modern works, built over the ruins of a bombed Gothic church you walk above on a raised path.
A brief history
The church of St. Kolumba was destroyed in 1943; the archdiocese's new museum, finished in 2007, was designed around its remains.
