Palace of Tears

During the division of Germany, it served as a border checkpoint for travelers between East and West Berlin. Today it is a museum that documents the history of the division of Germany and the experiences of the separated families. The name comes from the emotional farewells that took place here when visitors had to say goodbye to relatives.

Reichstag

The Reichstag in Berlin, originally the seat of the German Empire, became the seat of the Bundestag after reunification in 1999. Sir Norman Foster oversaw the renovation, including the new construction of the iconic glass dome, which symbolizes transparency and offers visitors a unique panoramic view of the city. As a symbol of German democracy, the Reichstag is open to the public and offers a permanent exhibition on the history and function of parliament.

Potsdamer Platz

Potsdamer Platz, located in the former no man's land right next to the Berlin Wall, is a central traffic junction and newly developed lively district in Berlin. It is home to skyscrapers, shopping centers, cinemas, restaurants, museums and even a film academy. The square is a symbol of Berlin's resurgence after the fall of the Wall and attracts tourists and locals alike.

Topography of Terror

The Topography of Terror is a project that was established in 1987 in Kreuzberg and is dedicated to documenting and coming to terms with the terror in National Socialist Germany. The documentation center, which opened in 2010, hosts a number of special exhibitions in addition to the permanent exhibition. The facility serves the culture of remembrance and offers visitors the opportunity to come to terms with a dark chapter of German history.

Victory Column

The Victory Column with its golden sculpture, known as the "Goldelse", is one of Berlin's most prominent landmarks. It is worth visiting the viewing platform to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the Tiergarten and the surrounding area. It is not only a historical monument, but also world-famous for major events such as the Love Parade.
