Inhaltsangabe

One of the world's great museums lies on Berlin's Museumsinsel (Museum Island) complex, which is situated between the River Spree and Kupfergraben. Five museums were built here between 1824 and 1930 to house archaeological treasures and art collections. The last of the five to be built was the Pergamon Museum, which was designed by Alfred Messel and houses spectacular works of architectural antiquities, including collections of Assyrian, Far Eastern, Greek and Islamic art. Highlights include the Pergamon Altar, with a 120-metre (394-ft) frieze, the Market Gate of Miletus and the Ishtar Gate from Babylon.
