Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte (Berlin)

The Museum für Vor- und Frühgeschichte (''"Museum for prehistory and early history"''), part of the Berlin State Museums, is one of major archaeological museums of Germany, and among the largest supra-regional collections of prehistoric finds in Europe. It was previously located in the former theatre building by Carl Ferdinand Langhans, next to Schloss Charlottenburg, and encompasses six exhibition halls on three floors. Since October 2009, the museum's exhibitions are now displayed in the Neues Museum on Museum Island.

Apart from a permanent exhibition, it regularly houses temporary exhibits. Attached to the museum is a specialised library on prehistoric archaeology with over 50,000 volumes. Furthermore, the museum houses the ''Commission for the exploration of archaeological collections and documents from northeast Central Europe'', a project for the study of ancient Egyptian calendars, and a number of other bodies.
