Even though i had a museum card, when i got to the Neues Museum, they asked for extra 4 euros to update the ticket and enter the museum, cause of a temporary exhibition. I asked to visit only the permanent collection, but that was not possible because the 2 exhibitions were not separated. So I upgraded the ticket anyway.. The... More

Our experience with the Neues Museum was somewhat frustrating. The organization of the museum seems misleading and poor, while the artifacts, especially the bust of Nefertiti are a must-see. Finding Nefertiti, however, was like a treasure hunt. You really need time to get acquainted with how the floors and rooms are set up, before you can really enjoy the pieces.... More

There are two must visit museums in Berlin - Pergamon and Neues museums. The best part of Neues museum is the Egyptian collection and of course the main treasure is the bust of Nefertiti! She is amazing! If you are planning to visit several museums in Berlin, then it would be better to buy a day or several days pass.... More

I don't like museums but enjoyed the Neues and Pergamon museums very much. Neues was a very well stocked Egyptian collection and I was very impressed. Worth the time! Make the wife happy!

This museum's main attraction in the bust of Nefertiti - one of the most important pieces of art in the complete human history. It's a must see. Other artefacts include a collection that is a somewhat a less relevant continuation of the Pergamon museum. Deserves just a stroll through, unless you are an archaeology fan.

Great to go if your interested in history, especially the Egyptians and Roman's... just be sure not to touch anything and you can't take pictures with your flash on... staff can be very rude and abrupt at times...

Adored the collections in this museum. I would rate this as the best museum I went to during my stay. The Egypt collection is especially great.

This museum has been so well reconstructed that to see this is an attraction in itself. We loved that the old ceilings have been kept and not repainted and the central space is wonderful. We saw Nefertiti (of course) but there are many more interesting rooms including what is left of Schliemann's finds at Troy

We had only 2 full days to see Berlin in the beginning of April and since the weather was not treating us kindly, we thought that a museum visit would be a great way to spent our time in warmth and culture. We've chosen Neues Musuem, because someone from our group heard that Egypt wants their Nefertiti back and this... More

The Neues Museum is the second best museum in the Berlin Museumsinsel (The Pergamon is the best). The best part of the Neues Museum is its Egyptian collection, with the famous Nefertiti bust as the jewel in the crown. She is really beautiful and fully deserves her fame! To visit the Nueues Museum, you not only need an entrance ticket... More
