On the way to the German History Museum we passed by this one done in the classic style- turns out it is one of many museums in this area, that is Museum Island, the Alte Nationalgalerie Museum. Some of the others are the Pergamon and the Neues Museum. The reason I mention this is because later I came back to visit and I am so glad I did, otherwise I would have missed not only the bust of Nefertiti in the Neues Museum but the Ishtar Gate in the Pergamon! (Unfortunately the Pergamon temple itself was closed off.) It just goes to show the benefits of exploring on your own when you have the time, and what you might miss if you don't.
