The museum is housed in the Langhans Wing (West Wing), in what was originally the palace theater. Although much important material (including part of Schliemann's finds from Troy) was lost during the Second World War.
Description   
The collection has been supplemented by new acquisitions and excavation material and presents an excellent survey of the prehistory of Europe and the East. The exhibits here are supplemented by those in the museum of the same name in the Bode Museum.

Room 1: Material (originals or reproductions) of the hunting, gathering and fishing cultures of the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Ages (to 5000 B.C.). Room 2: farming cultures of the Neolithic Age (to 2000 B.C.) and material from western Asia (including the remaining parts of Schliemann's Trojan finds).

Rooms 3 and 4: Bronze and Iron Age material, and prehistoric material from Brandenburg and the Berlin area (including the tomb chamber of a royal tomb at Seddin and a gold hoard from Eberswalde).
