Halle State Museum of Prehistory, Archaeological museum in Halle, Germany.

The museum displays a collection of 16 million archaeological objects, including tools, jewelry, and artifacts from prehistoric settlements throughout central Germany.

Founded in Naumburg in 1819, the museum relocated to Halle in 1825 before settling into its current building designed by Wilhelm Kreis in 1918.

The permanent exhibition presents thematic sections guiding visitors through 400,000 years of human history, from Stone Age discoveries to early modern period findings.

The museum opens Tuesday from 9:00 to 19:30, Wednesday through Friday from 9:00 to 17:00, and weekends from 10:00 to 18:00, with wheelchair access throughout.

The Nebra Sky Disk, a 3,600-year-old bronze plate with gold applications depicting astronomical observations, represents the centerpiece of the museum collection.
