044_Portico of the Trajaneum, Pergamon Museum.jpg

The Pergamon Museum is famous for housing monumental, full-scale reconstructions of ancient architectural structures.
The Portico of the Trajaneum, is a temple dedicated to the Roman emperors Trajan and Hadrian (the Roman Empire reached its geographical height during their reigns).
The two white marble busts resting on the ledge are the colossal heads of Roman Emperors Trajan and Hadrian.
The reconstructed Portico of the Trajaneum (built between 115–130 CE) inside Berlin's Pergamon Museum has the following exact architectural dimensions:
Height: 16.73 meters (approx. 54.9 feet)
Width: 28.92 meters (approx. 94.9 feet)
Depth: 6.66 meters (approx. 21.9 feet)
**The Pergamon Museum in Berlin’s Museum Island is completely closed to the public and will remain so until the North Wing and Pergamon Altar hall reopen on June 4, 2027.**

Excellent photograph nice that they placed the heads of the Roman Emperors Trajan and Hadrian at the entrance to the museum which must be amazing on the inside.
