This archaeological museum is one of the most beautiful I have visited. It is easily accessible as it is located in Berlin on the museum island, decidedly expensive but absolutely worth it just to admire the gate of the Miletus market. Don't miss the installation The Panorama, when we saw it we were truly amazed! Unfortunately, the museum cannot be completely visited as it is undergoing renovation, so I recommend checking on the official website what is visible and what is not visible at the time of the visit.

Like the other exhibition complexes of the Museum Island, the Pergamon Museum was built to house trophy antiques accumulated in huge numbers by German archaeologists in the 19th century. The museum's most famous exhibit is the Pergamon Altar from Asia Minor, so huge that it required a separate hall with a wall height of more than 15 m. The altar was excavated in the resultant excavation on the west coast of Turkey, near the city of Bergama, by Carl Humann in 1878-1886. The monument, dating from 164 BCE, is part of a complex of royal palaces, temples, library and theatre. Equally impressive is the restored market gate from Miletus, built by the Romans in Pergamon in 120 AD during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. The museum also exhibits a roasting collection of Greek and ancient Roman sculptures (some of which bear traces of original paints), Islamic art, statuettes and clay tablets. There are exhibits from Sumer and other parts of the Middle East.

Wow, the Pergamonmuseum simply blew us away! The sheer scale of the exhibits is incredible - expansive, vast, grand barely do it justice! Walking beneath the reconstructed Ishtar Gate and exploring the intricate details of the Market Gate of Miletus was breathtaking. A must-see for any history-loving couple visiting Berlin!!!!

The main museum was being remodeled as of May/June 2024. I found the temporary museum to be amazing. This was one of the best murals that I have ever seen. Your Museum Island combo ticket can get you into the temporary museum.

The museum of Pergamon was closed, so we visited the Panorama of Pergamon. We didn't know what to expect. Amazing experience. There were some good-described exhibits and then you went into the Panorama. There was the choice of guided headsets. Psnorama is a dome with paintings from life in Pergamon. Sounds and music that travel you to Pergamon. A 24-hour with the lighting and the sounds, changing accordingly. When the night falls, the lighting makes the paintings 3D. Amazing idea capture and amazing execution. Definitely worth a visit.

This is a must visit museum near to a world marvel experience. The amount and mostly uniqueness of their Collections is worth a visit. It is so interesting that time flies, so be mindful if you planned a busy day. This place will astonish you. A museum you cannot leave Berlín without visiting.
