August - September 2011 berlin.inyourpocket.com
Berlin is four times the size of Paris, and even though the
city consolidated its 23 districts into 12 in 2001, youre still
left with 23 self contained areas (Kieze) in which Berliners
often find everything they need. Public transportation is
far-reaching and effective though, and youll grow to love it
as you shuttle between the four areas with the most sights:
Charlottenburg, Tiergarten, Mitte and Kreuzberg.
Mitte (MI)
Since reunification, Mitte has rightly snatched back the title
of most-visited district from Charlottenburg. On and off the
boulevard Unter den Linden, whose trees Marlene Dietrich
once extolled in song, are baroque and classical monuments
to Prussian culture. The proximity of state libraries, the State
Opera, Humboldt University, the old Arsenal (now the German
History Museum), Gendarmenmarkt, Museum Island, Berliner
Dom, and the abandoned East German Parliament building
make for more talk, less walk tours. The architecturally
humbler area of Mitte is the Scheunenviertel, whose layout
looks as if 17th-century planners got interrupted during a
game of pick-up sticks. Its on these streets that the casually
chic saunter from courtyard gallery to sidewalk caf, pointing
out directions to tourists seeking out the latest hotspots or
traces of the Jewish community that lived here from the late
17th-century until the mass deportations of the Nazi era.
Charlottenburg (CB)
I f downtown to you means wi de, traf fi c-fill ed streets,
crowds of shoppers, five-star hotels and tall buildings, then
Charlottenburg comes closest to fitting the bill in Berlin.
Much of what was here was bombed in the war and built
anew in the 1950s. The nexus of activity is the knot where
Kufrstendamm, Joachimsthaler Str, Bahnhof Zoo and
Tauentzienstr. come together. Follow what becomes an
increasingly silken ribbon down Kurfrstendamm (Kudamm)
and the setting becomes more genteel where you cant see the
buildings for the trees. Nearby but isolated from the hoi polloi
is Schloss Charlottenburg, the residence of King Friedrich I.
Tiergarten (TG)
Tiergarten is both a district and the name of the 255 hectare
park that began as the Great Electors hunting grounds in
the 1600s and became increasingly more civilised with
landscaping in the 1800s. Traffic passes through it, doing a
dosey-doe around the Siegessule (Victory Column). Slicing
though the parks length is Str. des 17. Juni, which leads to
the Brandenburg Gate at the eastern end. Just south of it
are the museums of the Kulturforum and Potsdamer Pl.
Kreuzberg (KB)
Thanks to a large Turkish community and more hippies,
anarchists and al ternati ve folks than you can shake a
didgeridoo at, Kreuzberg feels neither East nor West. It
was the black sheep of West Berlin, left alone in its far-off
room to play loud music and draw on the walls (literally, it
was parked in a dead-end, cornered by The Wall). In 1987
social and economic frustration exploded into violence and
vandalism during the traditionally political demonstrations
of May Day. Every year since, the city prepares for a long
night of stone-throwing and burning automobiles. May 1st
is essentially Kreuzbergs way of reliving its 15 minutes of
fame. The rest of the days are marked by backgammon at the
mens clubs, caf-sitting on the Landwehrkanal, and ambling
down the popular drags Oranienstr. and Bergmannstr. Two
major museums, the House at Checkpoint Charlie and the
Jewish Museum, are planted in the staid parts of the district.
BERLIN DISTRICTS
Prenzlauer Berg (PB)
On a low hill northeast of Mitte, Prenzl Berg is an old
working-class district in the former East Berlin that came
through the war relatively unscathed. The best places to
soak up the atmosphere are Kollwitzpl, Helmholzpl. and along
Kastanienallee (all near U-Bahn Eberswalderstr.). Prenzlauer
Bergs few attractions include the Vitra Design museum and a
19th-century brewery complex that is now the Kulturbrauerei
culture centre. A good time to visit is Saturday when the eco-
market is open on Kollwitzplatz, or Sunday when everyone
sits outside being cool and eating breakfast all day.
Further afield
Districts mostly known for their restaurant and nightli fe
scene are Schneberg (SB), the centre of gay Berli n,
and Friedrichshain (FH), filled with creatively tattered and
tattooed students. Berlin has green spots galore, and after
Tiergarten the most popular getaways are the Grunewald
forest and lake Wannsee, in the southwest distri ct of
Zehlendorf (ZD).

This summer Berliners and indeed the world
remember one of the most remarkable and dangerous
moments of the Cold War. On 13 August 1961 the
East German authorities started erecting the infamous
140-kilometre long Wall around West Berlin, in an
effort to stop the mass emigration from the GDR to
West Berlin and West Germany. Apart from creating
a very tense political situation that could have ended
very badly, the Wall effectively cut the city in half.
The separation had huge consequences for ordinary
people in east and west, as well as for mundane city
services like electricity, water and public transport,
effects that are felt to this day. A number of museums
have exhibitions dedicated to the 50th anniversary of
the Wall this season.
Museum fans should also try to be in town for the
29th edition of the Long Night of the Museums, an
incredible event which sees over 100 museums
and institutions open their doors until late at night,
with shuttle buses linking them up. See page 8 for
details.

Ber l i n Wal l ar ound 20
year s ago, Ber l i n has
experi enced breakneck
change: its infrastructure
was modernized from the
ground up, while entire city
districts were either created
from scratch or thoroughly
remodeled. Moreover, Berlin
has become a capital not
only in the political sense,
but culturally and intellectually as well. As a result, it is
now considered one of the most exciting and diverse
cities in all of Europe.
Berlin finds its positive image reflected in its tourist
industry statistics: more and more people are visiting
our city to see its countless attractions for themselves.
These i ncl ude, for exampl e, the ubi qui tous traces
of a turbulent and emotional history and the ci tys
compelling museums, which invite you to browse the
worlds cultures. The contemporary art scene, too, has
long since found a home in Berlin, proof of which can
be seen in the citys hundreds of galleries, many stellar
collections often exhibited in innovative settings
and, most recently, the new temporary art gallery in the
heart of the city.
Great art can of course also be experienced in Berlins
opera houses and its many renowned theaters. Its
wi de range of orchestras i ncl udi ng the Berl i ner
Phil harmoni ker, the Staatskapell e, the Deutsches
Symphonie Orchester, the Rundfunksinfonie Orchester,
and countless others is unmatched in its quality and
diversity. And lets not forget Berlins exciting club scene
and the many di fferent restaurants, pubs, and bars
that make the city the place to be for anyone looking for
cosmopolitan flair and the latest trends.
In this spirit, I would like to wish you an eventful stay
in Germanys capital city
welcome to Berlin!

CULTURE & EVENTS
August - September 2011 berlin.inyourpocket.com
Public transport
Berlins integrated network of S-Bahn (Schnellbahn), U-Bahn
(Untererdische Bahn, underground), bus, and Straenbahn
(tram, in eastern Berlin only) is run by the BVG (tel. 194
49, www.bvg.de) and the system runs very smoothly, even
though they confuse everyone by naming buses and trams
the Metro network. If you remember the number (or colour)
and end station of the U or S line you want to use, youll soon
be navigating the labyrinth-like stations like a local. Signs
display the destination of the train, and at U-Bahn stations,
display when the next train will arrive.
The same tickets serve all BVG services. Vending machines
at stations and on trams have instructions in English and
accept coins (and on platforms, banknotes too). At larger
stations there are S-Bahn information and sales counters.
On buses, the driver can sell you a ticket.
With a 2.30 Einzelticket (single ticket) you can travel
one-way, with transfers, within the AB zone. Buy a 1.40
Kurzstrecke (short distance) ticket i f you want to travel
up to three S/U-Bahn stops, or up to six stops by bus or
tram. If you anticipate a lot of travelling, consider either the
Tageskarte (day card, valid until 03:00 the next morning;
6.30) or seven-day pass (27.20).
I f youre in a group of up to five people, you can buy a
Kleingruppenkarte (group day ticket, 15.90). The BVG, the
tourist office, and some hotels sell a variety of great-value
multiday city cards including the Berlin WelcomeCard and
the City Tour Card (see Sights for more details). If youre
arriving in or leaving Berlin by train and your ticket says
Berlin Stadtbahn, you can travel free on the elevated S-Bahn
line between Charlottenburg and Ostbahnhof on the day of
arrival/departure.
Before boarding the S- or U-Bahn, always validate your
ticket by punching it in the machine near the end of the
platform. On buses and trams, the machines are on board.
Public transport uses the honour system, and there are
regular checks by plainclothes inspectors. If you are caught
without a ticket (or with an unvalidated one) youll be fined
40 on the spot.
You can go play the night owl, as the nightime transport
options are excellent and have smooth connections. All
U-Bahn trains run every 15 minutes on weekend nights;
on weekdays buses marked N travel their routes every
hal f hour. Also, all tram and bus lines starting with M run
every hal f hour at night.
Trains
DB (Deutsche Bahn, German railways) runs ICE trains (high
speed), EC (EuroCity) and IC (InterCity). Seat reservations are
sometimes obligatory; check before boarding. Tickets can
be purchased at the the DB Centres in the stations, or book
online in advance at DBs fabulous online train timetable at
www.bahn.de.
Berlins huge new glass-sheathed Hauptbahnhof main
station is where all regional and intercity trains stop.
The station has all the essentials; shopping mall, post
office, toilets and showers and the Infostore tourist
information centre. Zoo Bahnhof (Zoologischer Garten)
and Ostbahnhof (in Friedrichshain, 20 minutes away by
S-Bahn from Zoo Bahnhof) have been reduced to regional
train stations. All three stations are connected by the
main S-Bahn line, and some to the U-Bahn. Regional (RE)
trains along the elevated east-west track stop at Mittes
Alexanderplatz and Friedrichstrae stations as well. If
your ticket destination is Berlin Stadtbahn you can use
it to travel further on the elevated S-Bahn track between
Charlottenburg and Ostbahnhof stations.
Taxis
Taxi drivers have a fine reputation in Berlin, and not only for
the splendid cream-coloured Mercedes they drive. Taxis
queue outside S- and U-Bahn stops, and can also be hailed
from the street at the same rate. The special 3.50 Kurz-
strecke is a set fare for short trips (2km or 5 minutes), and
can only be used in hailed cabs and if you mention it as soon
as you board. Calling a taxi is an option as well; mention to
the operator if you want to pay by credit card, as not all taxis
have card-reading equipment. By the way, Funk means radio.

ARRIVAL & TRANSPORT
Berlin has two airports (online at www.berlin-airport.de).
Tegel (TXL), the main airport, is 7km northwest of the
city centre. Behind the airport information desk in the
main hall are the BVG public transport ticket office
and the luggage office. Nearby are a post office and
ATMs. Tegel is well-connected to the city centre by bus;
the TXL JetExpressBus runs every 15-20 minutes
between 05:00 and 23:30, and is the quickest con-
nection to Hauptbahnhof station, Unter den Linden and
Alexanderplatz. Bus X9 (every 5-10 minutes from 04:50
to 23:00) gets you to Zoo Bahnhof in 20 minutes. Bus
N109 heads to S-Bahn station Charlottenburg and
N128 to U-Bahn station Osloer Strae. Single 2.10
tickets can be bought from machines outside or from
the driver, and are valid for two hours. A taxi to the city
centre will cost about 18.
Schnefeld airport (SXF) is 20km southeast of the city
centre and mostly serves budget flights and holiday char-
ters. A shuttle brings you to the nearby S-Bahn/railway
station. An Airport Express train from here reaches the
city centre in 30 minutes; the S-Bahn take about 40 min-
utes. Take bus X7 to U-Bahn station Rudow for Kreuzberg.

new neighbour. The excellent Phil orchestra is directed by
Liverpudlian Sir Simon Rattle.

Shows
Admiralspalast F-3, Friedrichstrasse 101, MI, tel.
(+49)(0)30 47 99 74 99, www.admiralspalast.de.
Reopened to the public in 2006, the Admiralspalast was
originall y a bathhouse and club for Prussian soldiers to relax
in. Rebuil t in 1911, it was famous in Berlins Roaring 20s for
its cabaret, operetta house, spa and brothel. Hitler cleaned
up their acts in the 1930s, installing a private box so that he
could watch his favourite operetta The Merry Widow, and
in the 1940s the building was spared war damage. Bertold
Brecht used the theatre for his eyebrow-raising new theatre
in the 1950s and 60s before the theatre went into decline.
The complex has been restored (without the brothel) and is
a new centre of nightlife.
Berliner Residenz Konzerte B-3, Spandauer Damm
22-24, Groe Orangerie of Schloss Charlottenburg, tel.
+49 30 25 81 03 50, www.concerts-berlin.com. The

Dinner starts at 18:00, the concert at 20:30.
Berlins top hotels all have concierges that are there
to make the guests lives easier. They can inform you
about current events, book tickets, make restaurant
reservations and hand out copies of Berlin In Your
Pocket, transport maps, and brochures. Concierges
can be recognised by the crossed golden keys on the
lapels of their jackets.
Ask the concierge
With three opera houses, seven resident orchestras, doz-
ens of variety and theatre companies and ticket prices to
match all wallets, Berlin is truly a culture-lovers paradise.

Hokusai at the Gropius-Bau
Over 350 works by the world-famous Japanese artist
Hokusai (17601849) are on display in Berlins Martin-
Gropius-Bau, featuring works from all periods of his 70-year
career: woodcuts and drawings, illustrated books and
paintings. Hokusai is perhaps best known for his series
Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (182329), most famous
of which is the woodcut The Great Wave off Kanagawa,
showing two boats dwarved by huge waves, with Mount
Fuji in the background. Hokusai was born in 1760 in Honjo,
a district of Edo (now Tokyo). At six he was able to draw
and by the age of twelve he was working in one of the
many libraries in Edo that lent out printed books. By the
time he was eighteen he was already a master of the art
of the woodcut.
Cheap paper and printing techniques allowed woodcut
artists to produce large numbers of pri nts. Popular
topi cs were pi ctures of beauti ful women, Sumo
wrestlers, and Kabuki actors; flying dealers sold prints
all over Japan, mostly to middle class customers. Apart
from prints, Hokusai produced over 1,000 illustrations
for novels.
Besides highlights of Hokusai's works, the exhibition
explains the historical and cultural setting that he worked
in, and the cultural and commercial contact with Europe
that arrived via the Dutch traders in Nagasaki.

In the doubl e exhibi tion ber Leben (About li fe /
Survi val) at the Deutsches Historisches Museum,
some 280 photographs by Thomas Hoepker and Daniel
Biskup are on show, documenting the events between
the building of the Wall and the end of communist rule
in Eastern Europe. Thomas Hoepker caught the daily
lives of people in the GDR on camera, while Daniel
Biskup documented the nearly forgotten crises and
conflicts since 1989, witnessing li fe and survival in
the disintegrating Soviet Union and the crisis areas of
the Balkans. On August 13, the day the Wall was built,
admission to the museum is free.

Life behind the Wall
Its not long ago that we celebrated the 20th anniversary of
the fall of the hated Berlin Wall, but already theres another
Wall-related commemoration. It was on 13 August 1961,
50 years ago, that the GDR goverment started construction
of the 140-kilometre anti-fascist protection wall encircling
West Berlin. This event stunned the world, split up many
families and friends for decades, and lead to US and Soviet
tanks facing each other off at Checkpoint Charlie; the only
such dangerous encounter of the Cold War.
Leading up to the construction of the Wall, the Soviet-
dominated German Democratic Republic, East Germany,
was lagging behind West Germany in terms of economic
development and political freedom. Although the main
border between the two countries was closed, Berlin, which
was in the centre of the GDR, was a remarkable place
as people could freely travel around it, despite it being
devided between the Allies three West Berlin sectors, and
East Berlin. To escape the East German dreariness and
stagnation, approximately 20% of the GDR population
crossed over from East into West Berlin, from where they
could reach West Germany relatively unimpeded.
On that 13th of August, seemingly out of the blue and in
contradiction to promises by GDR leaders to never build
a wall, thousands of soldiers were trucked into Berlin
overnight and started work on the border installations,
first placing barbed wire and a simple wall which over
the years evolved into a scarily efficient death strip that
was only dismantled after Gorbachevs reforms crumbled
even the GDRs power.
To learn more about the Wall and to see the heartbreaking
images of family members and friends waving at each
other from either side of the Wall, the escape attempts
and how it all ended, we recommend a visit to the
Alliiertenmuseum, the impressive Berlin Wall Memorial
(where you see the original configuration of the Wall),
and the Haus am Checkpoint Charlie, as described on
our Cold War Berlin page (p.59).

Experience one of the coolest, most unique and most
environmentally friendly tours in Berlin with Europes first
fully-electric tuktuk. Known and loved throughout Asia,
the tuktuk (called this because of the sound its engine
makes) has delighted and terrified tourists from around
the world. Stories abound of drivers in Bangkok doing
100kmh on crowded city streets while white-knuckled
passengers pray they would make it to their next buffet
dinner. Well, now you can enjoy the fun without the fear
(or the noise or smell). The eTuk is built to European
safety standards and drives at a comfortable 45kmh.
Rent one to drive yourself (its very easy), or take one
of our guided city tours. The stretch eTuk seats up to
four adults and two children, so its perfect for families
or groups. More information at www.etuktuk.de or tel.

A visitor wandering through Berlin will soon notice the many
parks and green zones in the city, and the spacious setup of
the streets, with plenty of space for pedestrians and cyclists.
Of all German cities, Berlin has the least cars compared to
population, and with a truly excellent public transport system
and some whopping big green areas, the city is already miles
ahead of others when it comes to a clean green environment.
Of course, the absence of large-scale industry around the
city helps when it comes to avoiding pollution and waste,
as does the modest income of most inhabitants. Various
new green initiatives are of interest to locals as well as to
visitors; from hotels and restaurants to bike and car rental,
theres plenty of ways to go green in Berlin.
Many hotels and restaurants now sport eco-credentials;
the mitArt Hotel in Mitte (www.mitart.de) is completely run
to high ecological standards, and also has a good caf and
restaurant serving bio-food; the Bleibtreu in Charlottenburg
(www.bleibtreu.com) is another hotel using only natural
products. Dozens of restaurants, cafs and supermarkets
are into healthy organic food; a good selection can be found
via www.berlingoesgreen.de.
When it comes to getting around, Berlins public transport is
fantastically efficient and keeps on going night and day on
certain routes. Visitors can leave the car at the hotel and hop
on double-decker buses 100 or 200 which offer an affordable
way to criss-cross the city, taking in most of the main sights; hop
off and on as you wish. The elevated S-Bahn railway snaking its
way across the city centre is also great for sightseeing. However
good it is, public transport wont get you everywhere and on a
nice summers day its great to be out in the open opt for a bike
in that case. Berlins a safe city to cycle, and there are various
rental companies such as Berlin on Bike (www.berlinonbike.
de), Fahrradstation (www.fahrradstation.de) and Fat Tire (www.
berlinfahrradverleih.com) which rent out bikes for under 15
per day and also offer tours that take in more than just the city
centre sights, and venture out into the surrounding districts.
The German Railways excellent Call-a-Bike system (requires
registration; www.callabike.de) has bikes all over the city that
are activated with a phone call.
Finally, VeloTaxis egg-shaped CityCruisers powered by a
combination of pedalling and electricity and seating two, can
be spotted all over the city centre; hail one near Brandenburg
Gate or call (tel. +49 30 400 56 20, www.velotaxi.de).
Electronic transport is a new, upcoming alternative. At
the recent Challenge Bibendum mobility event in Berlin,
thousands of visitors from the automotive industry, politics
and media gathered to see progress in electronic mobility,
and a parade of 100 electric vehicles whispered through
Berlins streets. Berlins eMo project makes electromobility
a focal point of the next decade, aiming to make the city one
of the worlds leading green economies, with a million electric
vehicles on the roads by 2020.
Before thats reality, visitors can already rent Segways and
electric cars to zip around the city on two or four wheels at
Yoove (from 14,90 per hour, tours from 49, electro-cars
from 79 per day; Am Borsigturm 68 and a dozen other
locations, tel. +49 30 43 60 28 97 97, www.yoove.com).
More nifty vehicles are available at Lautlos durch Deutschland
(silently though Germany), which rents out Pedelecs (electromotor-
assisted bicycles), Bikeboards, Elmoto electromotorbikes and
electric cars (bikes and scooters from 8/hour, cars from 99/
day; Wilhelmstrasse 93 and Zimmerstr 97, tel. +49 30 88 76 62

Prenzlauer Berg
For a night out with the locals, head out into a Kiez, the generic
term for a particularly lively sub-neighbourhood of a city district.
Eating out and bar hopping is easy in Berlin because there
are so many restaurants, bars, pubs and clubs to dip and dive
your way through. With all the choices in each neighbourhood,
people tend to stick to one area once the night begins (or if
theyre exhausted from the sightseeing, to stay close to their
hotel). Though theres a range of places in each district, bars in
Potsdamer Platz and western Berlin are often more clean-cut
and targeted at the over-30 set. Prenzlauer Berg and Kreuz-
berg have a mix of hole-in-the-wall and trendy venues, while
Friedrichshain is really for the unwashed and adventurous.

Some of Berlins best restaurants reside in hotels in
the Charlottenburg district (C-3), and there are plenty
of esteemed chef-owned restaurants as well. Places in
Schneberg (D-4) and western Tiergarten (D-3) are
also listed here. West Berliners tend to be more affluent
and fashion-conscious, and the bar and restaurant scene
caters to that. Young people go out here too, but those
over thirty will appreciate the more professional service,
more mature company, and the low count of penny-
pinching hipsters.

Sumo F-5, Bergmannstr. 89, KB, MMehringdamm,
tel. (+49)(0)30 69 00 49 63, www.s-u-m-o.com. Sumo
is a cunningl y designed Asian restaurant on three levels
serving much more than sushi; there are soups and a wide

punks, students, and aging al ternati ve types still loyal to
the sounds of punk, ska, thrash, and hard rock. The crowd is

German and Austrian standards. The menu changes weekl y,
but count on Sptzle, Schweinebraten (braised pork), and

candles are lit in this welcomingl y dark and cool entoteca-
ristorante. The wooden floors and tables are worn, and
beyond the tall floral arrangements and angel wall fittings
that dangle soft lights there are many rustic touches to the
place. The 3-course meal served until 19:00 is a steal: 5,95
including water. The gnocchi and herb butter are homemade
and beyond traditional Italian preparations of fish, meat, and
pastas, nouvelle cuisine slips into creations such as mango
pepper soup. QOpen 10:00 - 24:00. (7-15). B
Sale e Tabacchi F-4, Rudi Dutschke Str. 23, KB,
MKochstr., tel. (+49)(0)30 252 11 55. This attractive
restaurant with a nice garden and real Italian waiters seems
to have gotten a bit comfortable and not so gracious with age.
Guidebooks send tourists here, and journalists working nearby
may meet visiting colleagues here for a meal, but on a recent
visit, the inexpensive wine by the glass was not pleasant, the
crme of cauliflower soup could not be pepped up by pepper,
salt, nor oil, and the waiter expressed a bit too much disdain
for a customer who only wanted a light bite at 23:00. Its the
nicest restaurant around Checkpoint Charlie, and is not
far from the Jewish Museum either. QOpen 10:00 - 02:00.

Berlin is a huge, fascinating city, but lacks a real Old
Town-type area. Attractions are fairly far-flung, so plan
your itinerary and get acquainted with the excellent public
transporation. If youre here for a limited amount of time,
we recommend you join one of the walking tours to get
your bearings and see the main sights.
Classic sights include the Brandenburger Tor and the
nearby Reichstag with its glass dome, the Berliner
Dom (the main cathedral), the museum-churches and
concert house on Gendarmenmarkt and the Neue
Synagoge. Fans of modern architecture shouldnt miss
the Potsdamer Platz area and the Jewish Museum.
Finally, you cant leave Berlin without a peek at one of
the remnants of the Wall and the ruin of the Kaiser
Wilhelm Memorial Church.
Essential Berlin
Brandenburger Tor F-3, Pariser Pl, MI, MUnter den
Linden. Berlins landmark building is one of 14 gates completed
in 1792 by Carl Langhans. Nike, the goddess of victory, drives
the chariot atop the gate, and German armies used to begin
their parades here. The proud gate opens onto Pariser Platz,
and it may as well have been built by the communists, so linked
in peoples minds is it to the double-wall system that essentially
bricked it in. Fascists spoiled the gate as well by staging their
torch-lit parades through it. Berliners celebrated the Walls fall
in 1989 by standing on it in front of the gate.
Gedchtniskirche (Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial
Church) D-4, Breitscheidpl, CB, MKurfrstendamm,
tel. 218 50 23, www.gedaechtniskirche-berlin.de. The
major attraction in what was West Berlin is this stark reminder
of World War IIs destruction. Kept as an open wound, the
severe acknowledgement of German culpability is declared on
a plaque near the entrance of the old bell tower: The tower of
the old church serves as a remembrance of Gods judgment,
which befell our people during the war years. Berliners hold
little sacred and call the destroyed tower the hollow tooth.
The erection of the once enormous church dedicated to the
German emperor had been a feat of national pride: even
synagogues contributed to its funding, and it was first opened
in 1895. Inside is a gilded mosaic of the Hohenzollern dynasty.
The modern chapel and tower next door were completed in
1961, and are worth entering on sunny days for the amazing
blue stained glass windows. Q Old tower open 10:00 - 16:00,

WHAT TO SEE
August - September 2011 berlin.inyourpocket.com
Gendarmenmarkt F-3, Charlottenstr, MI, MFranzsische
Str.. Twin cathedrals-turned-museums (dating to the early
1700s) and the Konzerthaus (from 1818, by Carl Langhans)
make up this classic square in Berlin. Its so classic Berlin that
with the adding of a lion statue here, a fountain there, the film
production team of Jackie Chans Around the World in Eighty Days
turned it into 19th-century London in 2003. Luxury hotels use
their position bordering it as their drawing card. The squares
name stems from the mid-1700s when military regiments were
stationed here. The Deutscher Dom (tel. 22 73 04 31) is home
to a museum on the development of the German Parliamentary
system, not dull at all if youre a politics buff. Youll have to read
German or French to enjoy the Franzsischer Doms (tel. 229 17
60) exhibit on the contributions of French Huguenots to Berlins
development, beginning in the late 1600s. Q Deutscher Dom
open 10:00-18:00, closed Monday.
Neue Synagoge F-3, Oranienburger Str. 28-30, MI,
MOranienburger Tor, tel. 88 02 84 51, www.cjudaicum.
de. Though not worth the extra admission charge or the wait
to stand inside it, the gilded cupola of the New Synagogue is
one of the most eye-catching sights in Mitte. Exhibits strikingly
balance the restoration of the Alhambra-inspired synagogue
from 1866, with preserved evidence of its destruction, first
on Kristallnacht on November 9, 1938, and then through
Allied bombs. Documents and photographs remember the
thriving Jewish community of the neighbourhood, many of
whom worshipped here in what was the largest synagogue
in Germany. A subtle but effective sound installation adds to
the experience. QOpen 10:00 - 18:00, Fri 10:00 - 14:00.
Closed Sat. Admission 4.60/3.
Nikolaivier tel G- 3, Between Rathausstr. and
Mhlendamm, MI, MAlexanderpl., www.stadtmuseum.
de. Berlins tiny medieval heart is the Nikolai Quarter, whose
onl y trul y medieval-looking building today is the Nikolaikirche
(the twin-spired, stone church; open 10:00-18:00, 5/3).
The church dates to 1230 and was rebuil t along with the
entire quarter in the mid-80s to mark Berlins 750th birthday
in the area in which the fishermens settlement first began.
No one was trying to outdo Wal t Disney here, and many of
the buildings have the simple, concrete facades that the
Communist government could afford. The small shops in the
area mostl y deal in toys and souvenirs and tourists gladl y fill
the sunny tables at the restaurants that face the Spree River.
On Rathausstrae, theres a row of restaurants that flaunt
old-fashioned Berlin cuisine and atmosphere. Other rebuil t
historic buildings in the area date to the 1700s, such as the
Ephraim-Palais and Knoblauchhaus. Both have changing
exhibits related to Berlin.
Potsdamer Platz E/F-4,, MPotsdamer Pl.. Once the
modern heart of a thri ving metropolis, this urban centre
was heavil y damaged in the war, and suffered again when

its huge atrium and tent-like roof. Its best to view at night
for its impressive lighting. The neighbouring DaimlerChrysler
complex holds archi tecture by Renzo Piano and Richard
Rogers, and the Arkaden shopping mall, with rather humdrum
shops, but the best gelato caf in the city.
Reichstag/Bundestag F-3, Platz der Republik
1, Tiergarten, MUnter den Linden, tel. (+49)30 22
73 21 52, besucherdienst@bundestag.de, www.
bundestag.de/htdocs_e/visits. The name together with
its monumental size make most people associate Germanys
neoclassi cal parliamentary building wi th the Nazis, but
Hi tler and his party have li ttle history here. After hosting
parliamentary sessions since 1894, one month after Hitler
was appointed chancellor in January 1933, it was set on fire
by Dutch communist Marinus van der Lubbe. In the years
during which it abutted the Wall as a conference centre, West
Berliners played football on its lawn, while later artist Christo
famousl y wrapped it in cloth. It did not serve as parliament
again until a reunited German government returned to Berlin
in 1999. Renovated by Sir Norman Foster, this building is
perhaps the most public federal building in the world through
its glass-dome tourist attraction. On the rooftop, photographs
documenting the buildings history circle the rim above the
parliament chamber. Two ramps spiral up the side of the
dome, an engineering feat even more fascinating than the
panoramic view from the top. Admission to the rooftop
and glass dome is for visi tors who book a guided tour of
the building (in advance, by email or phone), or who have a
reservation at the Dachgarten restaurant. Q Last admission
at 22:00. Admission free.
Museums
Because of its long period of separation, Berlin in effect has
two cities worth of museums, and the quality is proportional
to the quantity. The state museums, many clustered on
Museumsinsel (Museum Island), at the Kulturforum next
to Potsdamer Platz, and near Schlo Charlottenburg, include
audio guides and have a combined ticket system (see the
ticket options). The free Museum infoline (tel. 90 26 99
444) has all details about all Berlin museums.
Bauhaus Archiv D-4, Klingelhf er str. 14, TG,
MNollendorfplatz, tel. 254 00 20, www.bauhaus.de.
Sick of centuries of decorati ve design, a group of young
archi tects in Dessau under Wal ter Gropius started the
Bauhaus movement, believing firml y that by bringing design
(and foremostl y the architecture and furnishing of homes)
back to the basics would improve life. The group was joined
by big names such as Paul Klee, Wassil y Kandinsky, Ludwig
Mies van der Rohe, and was influenced by Piet Mondriaan
and Marc Chagall. Bauhaus top years were in the late 1920s.
Soon after, Nazi politics put an end to the liberties of the
group, which was branded cul turall y bolshevistic and it was
forced to move to Berlin. Many members emigrated to the
USA before the war broke out, and work was continued there.
This museum holds a large room with examples of Bauhaus
interiors, models of buildings and a collection of original
furniture, including Marcel Breuers famous 1926 steel tube
chair. Bauhaus influence on everyday design is immense -
after a visit here, youll start noticing it everywhere. QOpen
10:00 - 17:00. Closed Tue. Admission Wed-Fri 6/3, Sat-Mon
7/4 (including audio guide in German, English, French, Italian
or Spanish).
With over 450 exhibits from private
collections this permanent exhibition
provides general insight into Dal's virtuous
mastery in almost all art techniques,
in Berlins lively city centre.

have attracted attention with their innovative use of film
and video, will be presented in the IBB video lounge. The
new program format introduces not only new talents.
Established video artists are also invited to show their

garian avant-garde. The exhibition focuses on his years
of exile in Vienna (1920-1926) and the theory of picture
architecture which Kassk understood as an emancipatory
form of perception and expression. In addition, it will show
his journalistic activity in the circle of the internationally
influential magazine MA [Today], which reflected on expres-
sionist, dadaist and constructivist tendencies.

25th floor of this red brick skyscraper. Architect Hans
Kollhoffs magnificent 1930s-inspired building refers to
New Yorks skyscraping glory days but also resembles
the Berlin bear, complete with a golden crown. On the top
floors theres a short film and an exhibition about the
amazing history of Potsdamer Platz square, which went
from a world-class entertainment area to a Wall-divided
wasteland and back again within a generation. The caf

COLD WAR BERLIN
The physical division of Berlin during 28 years, and the
development of two completely separated cities on both
sides of the Wall that ran between them, has led to huge
differences that cannot be erased in a matter of a few
years. Heres an overview of sights that give insight into
life with the Wall.
Alliiertenmuseum (Allied Museum) Clayallee
135, ZD, MOskar-Helena-Heim, tel. 818 19 90, www.
alliiertenmuseum.de. The Allied Museum covers 50 years

Berlin Wall Memorial F-2, Bernauer Str. 111,
MNordbahnhof, tel. 464 10 30, www.berliner-mauer-
dokumentationszentrum.de. This excellent information
centre covers the Walls history in film, slides, and English
text. German speakers can listen to the propaganda of the
Studio at the Barbed Wire broadcasts, which vans blasted
via bullhorns to East German border guards between 1961
and 1965. The guards often drowned out the message from
the West by playing music. A graffiti-free portion of preserved
Wall runs along Bernauer Strae; you can walk behind it and
peer through a crack to see a preserved section of death
strip. One stop by tram M10 from the S-Bahn station. QOpen
10:00 - 17:00. Closed Mon. Admission free.

the war. QOpen 10:00 - 18:00. Closed Mon. Admission free.
Haus am Checkpoint Charlie (The Wall Museum)
F-4, Friedrichstr. 43-45, KB, MKochstr., tel. 253 72 50,
www.mauer-museum.com. A homespun Great Escape
museum of false trunks, tools, videos and stills of tunnel-
digging - and a submarine - attest to necessity and desire
being the mother of invention. Visit this museum for dramatic
stories of separated lovers, freedom-seeking families, and
fed-up senior citizens in the GDR who eventuall y breached
the Wall. A worthwhile stop, though unfortunatel y, the poor
translations and outdated texts do li ttle to illuminate the
events leading up to the Walls construction. The museum
also has art interpreting the concrete division of the city, an
exhibi t on human rights movements, and film screenings.
QOpen 09:00 - 22:00. Admission 9.50/5.50.

de. East Germanys State Securi ty Service or Stasi was
responsible for intelligence gathering both at home and
abroad. It spied on its own citizens, sometimes employing
the friends, colleagues, and famil y of those they wished
to keep an eye on. Today, this humble museum shows the
office of Erich Mielke, the Stasi minister for 32 years, in its
original dull state. In the former cafeteria you can watch a
video of Mielke testifying before a panel in 1989. Symbols of
Communist kitsch can be found in one room, and documents

RIVER TOURS
August - September 2011 berlin.inyourpocket.com
POTSDAM
After flowing a bucolic 400km from the Czech border region
to Berlin, the Spree River goes out with a bang before
disappearing into the Havel River in the Spandau district.
Cutting a southeast to northwest passage through the
city, the river provides tremendous views of the urban
landscape, including the Berlin Cathedral, the Reichstag
and government di stri ct and the Berl i n Wal l between
Ostbahnhof and Warschauer Strae. Some of the Spree
is diverted along park-lined canals and the city has more
bridges than those boastful cities Venice and Amsterdam.
Taking in the city from the top deck of a cruise boat is a great way
to spend a few hours. A waiter takes orders for beer, meals, snacks
and ice cream. The captain or a guide narrates (often in German
only), but youll get the idea when passing a great-looking building.
M.S. Schiffskontor tel. (+49)30 61 62 93 87, www.
schiff skontor.de. Thi s char ter ser vi ce company wi th
antique boats can cater to any occasion - from a relaxed
business event to a birthday party - and can take you just
about anywhere on Berlins waterways. Ride near to the
waves in the rustic open Oskar, buil t in 1930, which seats
16 people and has a canvas top. Youll look dashing wi th
dark sunglasses and a flowing scarf on the elegant I talian
Afrodi te, a pink beauty from 1950; this ship provides
cushi oned banquette seating and space for elaborate
picnics. And there are more elegant boats to choose from.
The websi te is in German, but the office staff speak English.
Prices depend on what kind of tour you want and on food
and drinks served.

departing next to Friedrichstrae train station. The longer
tours take in the citys bridges and sights by day, lasting
3 hours, though one doubles back past the citys main
sights while the other makes a round loop (and though
it may pass less spectacular sights, the parts of the city
are no less scenic). The evening tour shows you the city
lights by night. Narration is bilingual on the short tours,
otherwise English texts are available.

)
Part of Berlins charm is its proud grittiness, but dont chide
yourself for being bourgeois if it gets to you - it got on the nerves
of Friedrich der Groe (Frederick II the Great), too. The ruler of
Berlin (and all of Prussia) from 1740 to 1786 built his favorite
abode Sanssouci, outside Berlin in the town of Potsdam.
Without a worry was the French name of his palace, though
thanks to considerable care taken by its architect Georg
Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff, craftsmen, and artisans, it is
hailed as the Versailles of Germany. Sanssouci was intended
as a summer residence, and though Friedrich stretched out
the seasons he spent here, tourists dont have the same
privilege: many buildings close between mid-October and
April. The best attractions are open through winter - Park
Sanssoucis Schloss Sanssouci and Neues Palais; and the
Neuer Gartens Marmorpalais and Schloss Cecilienhof.
Potsdam basics
Potsdam is just a thirty-minute ride on RE train N1 or 3 from
central Berlin. From Potsdams Hauptbahnhof station take
bus N695 to get to the city centre and Sansoucci park. More
information: Postdam Tourist Information, Am Alten Markt 5,
tel. 0331 275 58 20, www.potsdam.de.
Biosphre Potsdam Georg-Herrmann-Allee 99, tel.
(+49)30 331 55 07 40, www.biosphaere-potsdam.de. A bit
of jungle in Potsdam. Over 20.000 plants (orchids, bromelias, ferns,
palm trees and more) in a hot and humid tropical hall. The children
will have plenty to discover - including an indoor playground. From
Potsdam station take tram N92 to Campus Fachhochschule or
N96 to Buga-Park. QOpen 09:00 - 18:00, Sat, Sun 10:00 - 19:00.
Admission 9,50/6,50, 10 including playground.
Filmmuseum Potsdam Marstall am Lustgarten,
MPotsdam-Hauptbahnhof, tel. (+49)30 331 27 18 10,
www.filmmuseum-potsdam.de. Featuring the history of the
nearby Babelsberg film studios and with changing exhibitions
on the world of film, possibl y the best thing about this
museum are the evening screenings of modern and classic
international films. Silent films are accompanied live by an
antique cinema organ. The Film Caf serves drinks and food.
QOpen 10:00 - 18:00. Admission 3,50/2,50.
Neues Palais tel. (+49)30 331 96 94 255, www.spsg.de.
Friedrich II preferred the simpler Schloss Sanssouci, but this was
the palace in which his descendants Wilhelm I and Wilhelm II razzled
and dazzled guests. Use the English-language text (10 deposit) as
you follow the German guide through studies, bedrooms, and party
rooms. The stone- and shell-encrusted Muschel Saal is like a grotto
from The Little Mermaid, and amongst so many chandeliers on
two floors, its Karl Friedrich Schinkels crown of kings that stands
out. QOpen 10:00 - 16:00. Closed Fri. Admission 5.
Park Sanssouci tel. (+49)30 331 969 42 02, www.
spsg.de. The low-lying rococo Schloss Sanssouci has a
gorgeous terraced approach. Its Bildergalerie wing features
works by Rubens, Van Dijck and Caravaggio. On the opposite
side are the Neue Kammerns guest apartments. The palace
sits within the 290 hectares of Park Sanssouci, which among
other sights holds a botantical garden, the Orangerie, Roman
baths, the Chinese House, the Neues Palais, and Karl Friedrich
Schinkels Schloss Charlottenhof, whose interior is perhaps the
best preserved example of Schinkels work. Each sight has its
own separate admission charge and changing exhibits. A general
information office can be found at the historic windmill, between
the Orangerie and Schloss Sanssouci. The hilltop Belvedere
auf dem Pfingstberg (closed Dec.-Feb) is a romantic folly
lookout tower built according to plans of Friedrich Wilhelm IV and
completed in 1863. QOpen 10:00 - 17:00. Closed Mon. Schloss
Sanssouci is open 10:00 - 16:00, closed Mon. The guided tour
costs 8; entrance to the park (open from dawn to dusk) is free.
Over 3,000 films have been shot over the last century at
the famous Babelsberg UFA/DEFA studios, including Fritz
Langs Metropolis from 1927. The studios theme park
may be keyed towards a German audience, but still has
enough excitement and interest for foreigners to make
a trip worthwhile. There are stunt, animal and pirate
shows, studio tours and behind the scenes insights into
the development of special effects through the years.
The new exhibition Star Trek - Die Ausstellung is a must
for all trekkies beaming down to Berlin; see original sets
(including the bridge of the Starship Enterprise where you
can sit in the captains chair), photos, videos, costumes
and interactive displays about the five TV series made
in the 1960s and the eleven films shot in the decades
afterwards.

Mittes credit card trail is Friedrichstr., between Unter

zero. To call abroad, dial 00 followed by the international
country code and the local number. To call Germany from
abroad, dial the international access code followed by the
German country code (49), and the city code (Berlin 030,
Frankfurt 069, Munich 089) or mobile number, dropping
the initial zero. Most public telephones are card-operated.
