No one has rated this yet.

The star exhibit in the Egyptian Museum, currently in the Altes Museum, is the mysteriously beautiful bust of Nefertiti, wife of Akhenaton. The long-necked limestone bust, discovered in 1912, probably served as a model. Also worth seeing is the “Berlin Green Head”, a small bust from the 4th century BC. The museum also holds numerous mummies, sarcophagi, murals and sculptures.
