Architectural Masterpiece: Neues Museum

The Neues Museum, a significant site for art museum design, opened in 1855.

Founded by King Friedrich Wilhelm IV, this museum is notable for its restoration, which began in 2003 and was led by architect David Chipperfield after the building was heavily damaged in World War II. It combines collections from the Egyptian Museum, the Museum of Pre- and Early History, and the Antikensammlung, making it a hub for ancient history.
