The Pergamon Museum

October 5th, 2006

Possibly the most popular museum in the city, the Pergamon Museum is certainly deserving of its reputation. This impressive museum houses stunning examples of Roman, Greek, Islamic, Babylonian and Middle Eastern art and architecture. The museum is divided into three sections, Classical Antiquities, Near Eastern Antiques and Islamic Art. Just a couple of the wonderful works include the gorgeous Pergamon Altar, which dates back to 165 BC Turkey, and the 17th century Aleppo Room, which features beautiful wood carvings.
