The Cloisters is a special museum in Washington Heights operated by the Metropolitan Museum of Art that houses their collection of medieval Eurpoean art, architecture, and gardens. Built in the 1930s by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., The Cloisters building is one of the most unique in the City, incorporating pieces of medieval European ruins directly into the structure.
