Pergamon Museum in Berlin
The Pergamon Museum is considered to be the visitor magnet par excellence among Berlin’s museums. With the shimmering turquoise Ishtar Gate, the majestic building on Museum Island is sure to impress. Walk along the Processional Way of Babylon as you would have if you lived more than 2,600 years ago.
Please note: As the Pergamon Museum will close on 23 October 2023 to carry out extensive renovation work, time slot tickets tend to run out quickly.
