The museum is fantastic and very well kept. My biggest issue visiting was that the Pergamon Altar was closed for renovations (I guess they have to do it some time...). We bought 'skip the line' tickets, which I would advise to anyone with limited time...More

Spectacular, beautiful, informative and a little overwhelming! Tips- it is only possible to skip the lines if you buy a timed entry to this museum alone for 12 E (which can be done online at tiqets.com). If you prefer to buy the Museum Island pass...More

One of the most famous museums worldwide. Treasures of old cultures can be seen. You can make yourself a picture about the life 1000s of years ago in the first civilizations.

This is a must see in Berlin but I would not wait in line for very long, better to visit one of the other museums and let the line wait until is gets smaller. You don't really need more than an hour or so given...More

The ground floor is stunning in its proportions, the exhibits leave you in awe and humbleness. The first floor was honestly poor. I do recommend but I think something is still missing

Do yourself a favor and get tickets before hand. We waited in line for 90 minutes. While the exhibits were impressive and the audio tour was good, waiting 90 minutes is not worth it.

Another of the fine museums on Museum Island... The Babylon Gate (pictured) is very impressive in person. many other antiquities on display - a must see venue.

My trip to Berlin was simply stupidly short. Have to return, to spend more time in this museum, and to see all other museums

like the Brandenburg Gate, Alexanderplatz, and Museum
Island. The central location makes this one of the
city's most expensive places to live. It is here the
oldest traces of the city can be found, and evidence
of some significant transformations, as well. The
