More than 60 years after it suffered severe bomb damage during the second world war, Berlin’s Neues Museum reopened on Friday, providing the priceless 3350 year-old bust of Queen Nefertiti with a new home. Ravaged by the weather and neglected by east Germany’s communist authorities after the war, the Neues Museum has been lovingly restored by David Chipperfield, the British architect, over a period of six years and at a cost of more than €200m.
