The Altes Museum (German for Old Museum) is a museum building on Museum Island in Berlin, Germany. Since restoration work in 2010–11, it houses the Antikensammlung (antiquities collection) of the Berlin State Museums.[1] The museum building was built between 1823 and 1830 by the architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel in the neoclassical style to house the Prussian royal family's art collection. The historic, protected building counts among the most distinguished in neoclassicism and is a high point of Schinkel's career.[2] Until 1845, it was called the Königliches Museum (Royal Museum). Along with the other museums and historic buildings on Museum Island, the Altes Museum was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999

The Museum of Communication Berlin was founded in 1872 as the first postal museum in the world. At the suggestion of the former master postmaster Heinrich von Stephan, between 1893 and 1898, a splendid, representative building was erected on Leipziger Strasse / corner of Mauerstrasse, where the museum was henceforth located. Since its opening, the house has undergone a varied history: during the Second World War, the house was closed and badly damaged in the last two years of the war by bombing. In 1958, the museum was reopened as a postal museum of the GDR in makeshift rooms. West Berlin founded the "Berlin Post and Telecommunication Museum" at the Urania in 1966. After various stages of reconstruction of the East Berlin Museum and a careful renovation of the museum building according to modern monument preservation aspects, the house was finally reopened on March 17, 2000 as the Museum of Communication Berlin

The Pergamon Museum (German: Pergamonmuseum) is situated on the Museum Island in Berlin. The building was designed by Alfred Messel and Ludwig Hoffmann and was constructed over a period of twenty years, from 1910 to 1930. The Pergamon Museum houses monumental buildings such as the Pergamon Altar, the Ishtar Gate of Babylon, and the Market Gate of Miletus reconstructed from the ruins found in ancient Middle East.
The museum is subdivided into the antiquity collection, the Middle East museum, and the museum of Islamic art. It is visited by approximately 5,135,000 people every year, making it the most visited art museum in Germany (2007), and is one of the largest in the country.

The Zeughaus (old Arsenal) in Berlin, Germany is the oldest structure at Unter den Linden. It was built by the Brandenburg Elector Frederick III between 1695 and 1730 in the baroque style, to be used as an artillery arsenal for the display of cannons from Brandenburg and Prussia. The first building master was Johann Arnold Nering. After his death in 1695, he was followed by Martin Grünberg, then Andreas Schlüter and finally Jean de Bodt. Andreas Schlüter designed the keystones above the round-arch windows in the form of heads of giants. Georg Friedrich Hitzig (1811-1881) constructed the monumental flight of steps to the upper floor of the north wing and also a roof over the courtyard.
The building was converted into a military museum in 1875.
In March 1943, Rudolf von Gersdorff tried, but failed to assassinate by suicide bombing Adolf Hitler, during the opening of an exhibition in this museum.
