When the famous Ishtar Gate was being reconstructed in Berlin, they made too many tiles, so the leftover ones were installed in the Klosterstrasse (U2) subway station. Which makes the station the only place you can see part of the Ishtar Gate until 2037 or so until the museum reopens after a lengthy reconstruction.
