The
Market Gate of Miletus is a large
marble monument in the
Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany. It was built in
Miletus in the 2nd century AD and destroyed in an earthquake in the 10th or 11th century. In the early 1900s, it was excavated, rebuilt, and placed on display in the museum. Only fragments had survived and reconstruction involved significant new material, a practice which generated criticism of the museum. The gate was damaged in
World War II and underwent restoration in the 1950s. Further restoration work took place in the first decade of the 21st century.
