Neues Museum

HistoryArchaeologyOpen until 6pmFrom €14U Museumsinsel (U5)

Costruito tra il 1843 e il 1855 da Friedrich August Stüler, il Neues Museum rimase a lungo in rovina dopo la Seconda guerra mondiale, per poi riaprire nel 2009 grazie al restauro di David Chipperfield, che ha scelto di lasciare visibili i segni della storia. Il museo ospita l'Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection – celebre per il busto della regina Nefertiti – e il Museum of Prehistory and Early History, che vanta capolavori come il Cappello d'oro di Berlino e i reperti troiani di Schliemann. Il complesso fa parte del patrimonio mondiale UNESCO di Museum Island.
