Vorderasiatisches Museum

Bereichsnavigation 2. Ebene

Objects from German excavations in the Land of Two Rivers lend the Vorderasiatisches Museum (Museum of the Ancient Near East) in the South Wing of the Pergamonmuseum its special authenticity. The geographic and historic bow ranges from Uruk via Akkad, Ashur, Nimrod and Niniveh to Babylon, from the fifth millennium BC into Hellenism and extends to the Hittites of Asia Minor and the Achaemenians in Susa and Persepolis in what is now Iran.

Since moving into the Pergamonmuseum in 1930 the Vorderasiatisches Museum has had to get by with the main level of the South Wing. When it gains use of the upper level, where the Museum für Islamische Kunst is currently situated, its position as one of the largest museums of ancient oriental art and culture will become quite apparent.
