Museum Island
The Museum Island on the Spree, designated as a Unesco World Heritage Site, is home to five renowned museums.
Visitors can admire ancient artifacts at the Pergamonmuseum and Altes Museum, view 19th-century art at the Alte Nationalgalerie, and examine medieval and Renaissance sculptures at the Bode-Museum. The Neues Museum is particularly notable for housing the highly prized and disputed bust of Nefertiti, which has been the subject of repatriation demands from Egypt for nearly a century.
