Description:
- After World War II bombs destroyed the previous Neues Museum, plans were made to build a bigger and better site to house a range of exhibits. Finally in 1997, work began on the design for the building, with an emphasis towards a so-called "gentle reconstruction" of the original structure. Reopened in 2009, some of the exhibits include Queen Nefertiti from the Egyptian Museum and pieces from the Museum of Pre and Early History. With all the time and effort that has gone into its construction, the museum is a spectacular addition to the area.
