Do galaxies have nebulae?

Many do, certainly. However, the very oldest galaxies have used up most of their starforming material by now. Spiral galaxies such as our own have lots and lots of nebulae. Often galactic rotation can start off bouts of star formation from the nebulae (both bright and dark) as they come under the gravitational influence of new stars in their neighbourhood.
