How long should I spend at the Neues Museum?
The amount of time you should spend at the Neues Museum depends on your interest in the exhibits and how thoroughly you'd like to explore them. Here's a general guideline:
- Quick visit (1.5 to 2 hours):
If you're short on time or just want to see the highlights, like the Nefertiti Bust,the Egyptian Collection, and walk through the main galleryies, a visit of around 1.5 to 2 hours should be enough. - Average visit (2 to 3 hours):
For a more in-depth exploration at a relaxed pace that takes you through the whole museum with special attention to the Prehistory and Early History collections and the Classical Antiquities, plan for around 2 to 3 hours. - Thorough Visit (4+ hours):
If you want to fully immerse yourself in all the exhibits, including special and temporary exhibitions, as well as take your time with the audio guides or guided tours, expect to spend upwards of 4 hours.
