This museum houses a collection of Greek and Etruscan artefacts displayed in a traditional manner. The quality of the exhibits is high but some rooms were closed when we visited so it was quite a short visit. That said we enjoyed the museum and entry was included in the admission price of the Glyptothek situated on the opposite side of Konigsplatz

I visited an interesting exhibition on the subject of light in Pompeii. It gave me a lot of new insights into the subject. This exhibition was not officially organized by the museum but by a research project. Therefore, a separate entrance ticket was required, which was not valid in the rest of the museum.

A rich and varied archaeological collection. It's a shame that the exhibition criteria are a bit dated, both for the arrangement of the works and for their lighting. It is unfortunate that some sections, such as the Etruscan one, were not open to visitors (August 2023). One floor was inaccessible to the public and the staff, who were not very courteous, did not want to provide any information on the reasons and expected closure times. It's a shame because, obviously, it is a collection of artefacts all coming from Italy.

Directly opposite the Glyptothek. Luggage storage also costs 1 EUR (as there are no lockers, only one person). Or you can leave your backpack in a luggage storage area that is accessible to everyone.
Lots of amphoras, plates, and again the drunken old woman who is also in the Glyptothek (where is the original now?).
In the basement you can find more jewelry, but also helmets.

Located in Konigsplatz is the Staatliche Antikensammlungen or State Collections of Antiquities, focused on Bavaria's collection of Greek, Etruscan and Roman artefacts from antiquities. There's some truly high quality exhibits on display, but pity there's very little English save for the description of each hall. The descriptions for the exhibits are in German only.
Would've been 5 star if there was any English. Luckily, I visited on a Sunday when the entrance fee is only €1.

This is a great collection of Greek and Roman antiquities, laid out in a very visitor-friendly way. You can get introduced to the subject and see some world-class items without the risk of the deadly museum-fatigue. The ground floor is organized thematically, introducing the visitor to various Greek and Roman gods and themes of Greek and Roman life, all illustrated by authentic painted pottery, statues and jewelry from Greece, Italy, Turkey and elsewhere. The small exhibit on the upper level is dedicated to Etruscan relics from the collection of James Loeb, a remarkable American who endowed the Munich archeological collections. It's a fascinating story. The lower level has Greek and Roman gold jewelry, glass and armor. The only better Etruscan collection I've seen is in Chiusi: there are bigger collections of Greek and Roman artifacts but few which are better. Hitler and Chamberlain took time out from deciding the fate of the world to visit this collection (which is located less than a hundred yards from the building where the ill-fated Munich agreement was signed). The museum is 50 yards from the gate seen on the Lowenbrau bottle. It's a five minute walk from the main train station -- if you are going from the Munich airport to someplace by train, check your bags (6 euros for a locker at the train station) and walk on over.

It has a great collection with ancient Greek pottery and some etruscan items. Unfortunately, as in many museums in Munich, the descriptions are mainly in German. The staff in the front desk is very friendly and helpful, especially a young lady who is, by the way, speaking greek. Also, we had a very nice coffee and dessert at the museum's cafe.

I went on a Sunday, so my 1 Euro entrance fee covered this museum and the Glyptothek across the street. I would have paid more for the Glyptothek and less for the Antikensammlungen. On the plus side, the museum did a great job of providing history and context, in German and English, about the items presented in each room. On the day I went, however, only the first floor was open to visitors. So I saw about 5 rooms of antique pottery, a small wall display of jewelry, and an exhibit of fashion inspired by ancient clothing. Overall a disappointing experience.

we travelled all the way from Seefeld in Tirol to visit especially this Museum.It was a Sunday when all the Museum is Munich Cost 1 euro!!! An outstanding valuable collection of carefully selected pottery especially of Greek and Etruscan origin. Unusual painting themes I think you cannot find them elsewhere. I Know because I am Greek.There are also exhibits of gold ,bronze and glass jewels and other items.
