Landesmuseum für Vorgeschichte Dresden, State Museum of Prehistory in Innere Neustadt, Dresden, Germany
The museum occupied the Japanese Palace, a grand building near the Saxon State Parliament, displaying archaeological findings from the region until 2012.
Founded in 1954, the museum housed significant prehistoric collections, including stone tools and golden rings from various excavation sites across Saxony.
The museum exhibitions covered 300,000 years of Saxon history, featuring rotating displays of archaeological discoveries and collaborations with international institutions.
The museum collection relocated to a converted gymnasium in Dresden-Klotzsche, while the institution reopened as the State Museum of Archaeology in Chemnitz in 2014.
The collection includes the Stone Age woman 'Rebekka' discovered in Dresden-Cotta and the Adonis of Zschernitz, Europe's oldest male clay figure.
