This second part of the series of photographs about the visit to the Pergamon museum is dedicated to Greece and more precisely to the city of Miletus. In this city of the Ancient Greece there was a market whose door was built in the second century BC.

This door was destroyed by an earthquake in the 10th or 11th century and in the early 1900s it was excavated, rebuilt and put on display in the museum. Its reconstruction lasted 4 years, from 1925 to 1929.

During the bombing of the Allies, when World War II, it suffered significant damage. According to the guide, the restoration of these damages lasted 2 years, from 1952 to 1954. The other great restoration that has had was in the decade of 2000.

There is also a sample of pieces that were found during the excavation of the Gate.

And there is a floor and a part of a Roman house in the same room.

I hope you enjoyed this second part about the visit to the Pergamon museum.
