Brandenburg Gate

A symbol of the Cold War that stood for years in a desolate no man's land. Now the Brandenburg Gate is the symbol of association and freedom. Thanks to the lack of car traffic, it is one of the meeting points in the city. In the high season it can be a bit crowded here with tourists, but you shouldn't skip this attraction during your visit to Berlin..

Berlin Wall

The recent past of Berlin can still be found everywhere in the city. Pay attention to the paving stones in the road surface. Those stones indicate the course of the Berlin Wall. Only two parts of that Wall are still standing as a horrifying reminder of the years of separation from the city. A frequently visited place is the East Side Gallery on Mühlenstrasse.

Checkpoint Charlie

You should not miss this famous landmark during your visit to Berlin. Checkpoint Charlie is a former checkpoint (during the Cold War) and one of the most famous attractions in the city. The Haus am Checkpoint Charlie Museum in particular gives an impressive glimpse into the history of this historic site.

The Reichstag

Since the reunification of the two Germans, the Reichstag has once again been the proud home of the German parliament. Most visitors have little eye for the politics that are practiced here, but would like to see the city from the glass dome.
