Itinerary
Checkpoint Charlie was the most famous Berlin border crossing during the Cold War between East and West Berlin. Today, a replica of the control barracks recalls the dramatic history of the divided city. Numerous information boards and the Wall Museum impressively convey escape attempts, agent stories and political backgrounds of this time.
On the site of the former Gestapo and SS headquarters, the “Topography of Terror” documents the crimes of the Nazi regime. The impressive exhibition of photos, documents and audio evidence is located outdoors as well as in a modern documentation centre. An important place of remembrance and enlightenment.
Potsdamer Platz symbolizes Berlin's transformation: From the former transport hub to the ruins of war to the modern architecture and shopping mile. Today, high-rises, cinemas, restaurants and the Sony Center meet here – a vibrant place that impressively combines past and present.
The Führerbunker was Hitler's last retreat during World War II. Today, the place is inconspicuous – a parking lot with an information board – but historically significant. The plaque provides information about the bunker construction and the last days of the Nazi regime. Not a monument, but a sober place to remember.
The monument to the murdered Jews of Europe, near the Brandenburg Gate, consists of 2,711 concrete steles. It creates an impressive atmosphere of silence and anxiety. Underneath is an information center documenting the history of the Shoah. A central place of remembrance in Berlin.
Brandenburg Gate The Brandenburg Gate is Berlin's most famous landmark. Once a symbol of division, it now stands for the reunification of Germany. A classicist city gate from 1791, it is located on Pariser Platz and is a popular photo spot and starting point for sightseeing.
The Reichstag is the seat of the German Bundestag and a symbol of German democracy. The modern glass dome by Sir Norman Foster is particularly well known, which visitors can enter free of charge. It offers impressive views of Berlin and insights into political events. Registration required!
The Museum Island in the heart of Berlin is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and houses five world-famous museums, including the Pergamon Museum and the Neues Museum. It offers a unique blend of art, archaeology and architecture. A must for culture lovers and one of the most important museum complexes in the world.
Bebelplatz is located on the magnificent street “Unter den Linden” and is known for the memorial to the burning of books from 1933. Surrounded by the State Opera, Humboldt University and St. Hedwig's Cathedral, the square is a quiet place with a lot of history in the heart of Berlin.
The Gendarmenmarkt is considered one of the most beautiful squares in Berlin. Framed by the German and French Cathedrals and the Konzerthaus, it exudes architectural elegance. Especially in the evenings or at Christmas time, it enchants with its atmospheric atmosphere and cultural flair.
The Jewish Museum Berlin is one of the most important museums in Europe on Jewish history and culture. Daniel Libeskind's spectacular building impresses with its symbolic architecture with sharp lines and blank spaces. The permanent exhibition highlights 1,700 years of Jewish life in Germany

About Berlin
Berlin is Germany's creative, open-minded capital, where landmarks of a turbulent history stand among art, green parks and legendary nightlife.
The Brandenburg Gate is the city's symbol, close to the glass-domed Reichstag and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Fragments of the Berlin Wall survive, most strikingly at the East Side Gallery, a long stretch covered in murals, and at the Bernauer Strasse memorial, while Checkpoint Charlie marks the most famous former crossing point.
