The design for the entrance building and visitor centre on the Museum Island was created by the architect David Chipperfield. A special exhibition on the Nile island of Elephantine provides the first-ever comprehensive insight into 4,000 years of history of the former trading centre and cultural melting pot in the south of Egypt.
