In 1794, Elector Karl Theodor brought his gallery of engravings and drawings to Munich. Since then, his collection has developed into a museum of world renown, thanks to significant donations by individuals and institutions. The collection includes some 400,000 drawings and graphics (from the Middle Ages to the present day), which are exhibited on a rotating basis. The temporary exhibitions have been shown in the Neue Pinakothek since 1991. The building itself is of great historical interest, as the infamous Munich Agreement (which condoned Germany's invasion of Austria and Czechoslovakia) was signed here by Chamberlain and Hitler in 1938.
