Bode-Museum
In the location's words:
The Bode Museum on Museum Island, housed in a magnificent Neo-Baroque building, showcases important collections of sculpture, Byzantine art, and historical coins.
Built between 1897 and 1904, the building stands out prominently at the northern tip of the island overlooking the Spree; with its large dome, grand staircases, and basilica-like central hall, it is reminiscent of a Wilhelmine-era museum palace. After sustaining severe war damage, the building was restored in accordance with historic preservation standards in the 2000s and reopened in 2006 as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Museum Island.
Highlights include Donatello’s “Pazzi Madonna,” Antonio Canova’s neoclassical sculpture “Dancer,” exquisite mosaic icons from the Museum of Byzantine Art, and precious ancient coins from the Numismatic Cabinet, which is one of the world’s largest numismatic collections. Through the interplay of art treasures and historic architecture, the Bode Museum offers an impressive journey through more than a millennium of European art and cultural history.
