Overview
Located north of the Altes Museum on Museum Island in Berlin lies the world-famous Neues Museum. It was built between 1843 and 1855 according to plans by Friedrich August Stüler, a student of Karl Friedrich Schinkel. The museum exhibits the same collections as it did before WWII when it was severely damaged during the bombing of Berlin and left as an abandoned bombsite.In 2003, the restoration work was undertaken by the offices of the British architect David Chipperfield. Neues Museum reopened its doors to the public in 2009 and now hosts geographically and thematically related exhibits put together from 3 separate collections: the collection of Egyptian art, prehistoric objects and classical antiquities. Among its most prominent artifacts is the iconic bust of the Egyptian queen Nefertiti.Don't miss The Crown of Kerch: Treasures from the Dawn of European History exhibit, on view from 19 October 2017 to 25 September 2022. Admire gold jewelry from the migration period found near the Black Sea and see silver brooches and magnificent belts from early medieval graves in France, Italy, Spain, and Germany. For the first time in 80 years, selected pieces from the collection of Johannes von Diergardt will also be on view again in Berlin, returning to the city where they were displayed until 1934.

- Museum Island
Berlin’s Museum Island owes its name to the fact that the precious collections of five museums really are located on an island – in the arms of the River Spree, which meanders through the city centre. The imposing buildings from the 19th and 20th centuries adorn the island to form one of the most important museums sites in Europe.
- Neues Museum
Reopened in October 2009 after extensive restoration, the Neues Museum ("New Museum") is one of the undeniable highlights of the Museum Island in Berlin. It combines geographically and thematically related exhibits, such as the Papyrus Collection of the Egyptian Museum, as well as the collections of the Museum of Pre-History and Early History and parts of the antiquities collection.
