Your experience

Getting started

Step into the Altes Museum, one of Germany's most important neoclassical landmarks, located on Berlin's UNESCO-listed Museum Island. With skip-the-line access, avoid the crowds and dive straight into a world of ancient art and history.

What to expect

Begin your journey in the grand rotunda, inspired by the Pantheon in Rome, where towering columns and murals set the stage for the treasures ahead. On the first floor, explore the rich art and culture of ancient Greece, from the 10th to the 1st century BC. See iconic sculptures like the Berlin Goddess, the Praying Boy, and the Amphora of the Berlin Painter.

Venture into the treasure vault beneath Schinkel's sky-blue ceiling, where dazzling gold and silver jewelry, cut gemstones, and ancient artifacts await. In the Münzkabinett, discover over 1,300 ancient coins, from early gold-silver alloys to Roman Empire coins, offering a glimpse into the evolution of currency.

Head upstairs to explore the art and archaeology of the Etruscans and Romans. Admire rare Etruscan house-shaped urns from Chiusi, the clay tablet from Capua, and Roman treasures like the Hildesheim silver collection and portraits of Caesar and Cleopatra.
