Museum Island (Museumsinsel) on the Spree River is a UNESCO World Heritage cluster of five world-class museums on a single 16-hectare island. The Pergamon Museum holds the Pergamon Altar and the Ishtar Gate of Babylon; the Neues Museum displays the bust of Nefertiti; the Alte Nationalgalerie has Caspar David Friedrich; the Bode Museum holds Byzantine sculpture; and the Altes Museum displays Greek and Roman antiquities.
The Pergamon is closed for major renovation until 2027 but the relocated Pergamonpanorama exhibition shows the Altar in 360-degree projection nearby. A combined Museum Island ticket (EUR 24) covers the four open museums. Allow a full day - and even then you will not see everything.
Pro Tip: The Neues Museum on Thursday evening (open until 8pm) is the quietest time to see Nefertiti without a crowd. Museum Island closes Mondays apart from the Bode.
