Foreword

Transport

As an anglophone or other foreign visitor, the language


barrier can make it hard to get familiar with and understand
German culture. This autumn however, Berlin is the place
to be for frustrated monoglots. The brilliant exhibition
Germany - Memories of a Nation at the Martin-GropiusBau gallery remembers aspects of Germany history from
a Britisch point of view, using 200 remarkable objects.
If thats not enough, Shakespeares play Hamlet is on at
the wonderful Schaubhne theatre with English/French
surtitles. With a raft of other excellent other exhibitions,
shows, tours and walks, there wont be a dull moment.

Although Berlin is lodged in the middle of the great


empty vastness of northeast Germany, its very well
connected to the rest of civilisation by bus, train, Autobahn
and air. Once in Berlin, youll wish that your home town had
such good public transport.

PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Berlins integrated network of U-Bahn (Untergrundbahn,
underground trains), bus, and Straenbahn (trams) run
by BVG and S-Bahn and RE (Schnellbahn and regional
commuter trains run by DB) usually works like a dream. Just
remember the number or colour and end station of the line
you want to use, and youll be navigating the labyrinth-like
stations like a local.
Most S/U-Bahn trains, buses and trams run every 5-15 minutes
during the day. M buses and trams run every half hour at
night; U-Bahn trains run every 15 minutes on weekend nights,
with N buses following their routes every half hour (starting
from Hackescher Markt) on weekday nights.
Tickets can be used on all BVG, S-Bahn and local RE train
services. Vending machines have instructions in English
and accept coins, often bank notes and cards too. Berlins
AB travel zone contains nearly everything; youll only need
an ABC-ticket for Potsdam and Schoenefeld airport.
With an Einzelfahrschein ticket (AB-zone 2,70, ABC 3,30)
you can travel one-way for up to two hours with unlimited
transfers; its cheaper to buy four tickets at once (Vier-FahrtenKarte, 9). Buy a 1,70 Kurzstrecke (short distance) ticket if
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, get
the Tageskarte (day ticket, valid until 03:00 the next morning;
7,00) or the seven-day pass (30,00). Groups of up to five
people are best off with a Kleingruppenkarte (group day
ticket, 17,30). The multi-day Berlin Welcomecard (19,5042,00) is valid for transport and some attractions.
Before boarding the S- or U-Bahn, always validate your
ticket by punching it in the yellow or red machines near
the end of the platforms. On buses and trams, the machines
are on board. Public transport uses the honour system, and
there are regular checks by uniformed and plainclothes
inspectors. If you are caught without a valid ticket youll
be fined 60 on the spot.
BVG
The Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe run the U-Bahn, buses and
trams. Their handy trip planner can be found at http://
www.bvg.de/en/Service.Qtel. +49 30 194 49, info@bvg.
de, www.bvg.de/en.

TAXIS
Berlins friendly and ubiquitous beige Mercedes taxis can be
called or hailed on the street. They can also be found queing
at S/U-Bahn stations and near nightlife hotspots. Not all taxis
accept credit cards, ask when you book. Prices are the same
day and night; flagfall plus the first kilometre is 3,40; then up
to 7km its 1,79/km, thereafter 1,28/km. Waiting costs 25/
hr. For short hops hail a taxi already driving in the direction
facebook.com/BerlinInYourPocket

you need to go and immediately ask for the Kurzfahrstrecke


tarriff; 4 for 2km. By the way, Funk means radio.

CYCLING
As long as its dry, getting around Berlin is really best done
by bicycle. Its a flat city, there are plenty of cycle paths and
wide bus lanes for you to use and you see so much more
from the saddle than from the U-Bahn train window. Note
that cycling on the pavement is illegal and may get you
fined, even though everyone does it. Cycling across town
may take a while, though for 1,60 you can take your bike
on an S/U-Bahn train too. There are dozens of bike rental
places, most charging 10-12 per day. The urban bike
trip planner www.bbbike.de can suggest low-traffic and
cobblestone-free routes across Berlin.

CITY CARDS
Discounts are a welcome relief, so if you are planning
to travel around town a lot and see more than one
museum, get a reduced rate card. Note that students
and youths may get better reductions at museums
using their student ID cards.
BERLIN WELCOMECARD
The Berlin WelcomeCard is a combined transport and
reduction card (museums, bike tours/rental, boat tours,
etc) valid for zone AB or zone ABC (which includes
Potsdam and Schnefeld airport). Cards are valid for 48
hours (AB 19,50, ABC 21,50), 72 hours (27,50/29,50),
and 4 (31,50/34,50), 5 (35,50/40,50) or 6 days
(41,50/45,50). Theres also a 72-hour variety (42/44)
that includes free admission to the five Museumsinsel
museums. Cards are sold online and from BVG ticket
machines, tourist offices, S-Bahn offices, hotels and kiosks.
The similar Berlin CityTourCard (www.citytourcard.com)
is a little cheaper, with restaurant, bar and club discounts
geared towards younger travellers; a 48-hour ticket costs
17,50 for AB, 19,50 for ABC, and there are also 72 hours,
4, 5, and 6-day tickets.Qwww.berlin-welcomecard.de.
MUSEUM PASS BERLIN
50 museums, including the permanent collections of
the Staatliche Museen (state museums), can be visited
with the Berlin Museum Pass (24/12, valid three days).
Its for sale at the museums, tourism offices and online.

CRIME & SAFETY


Berlin is a relatively calm and safe place. Instances of petty
crimes are low compared to other Western European capitals, though you shoulds still always keep an eye on your
valuables and never leave bags, wallets and mobile phones
unattended. Just like anywhere else, be careful when walking in unlit streets late at night. Race-related hassles seldom
occur in Berlins touristed central areas.

ELECTRICITY
Electrical current in Germany is 220v AC, 50 Hz via standard European round, two-pin sockets. Converters can be
bought at the airport and large electronics shops, and
many hotels will have them at the front desk too.

ERASMUS STUDENT
NETWORK
How do international students get to meet locals
and the city during an academic exchange? The
best way to do it is via the Erasmus Student Network
(ESN), one of the biggest interdisciplinary student
associations in Europe. It was developed to help
internationals during their stay abroad. ESN is present
in more than 430 Higher Education Institutions in 36
countries. The closest section to Berlin is the section
in Potsdam, where more than 20 volunteers care for
you. For information, see potsdam.esngermany.org or
www.facebook.com/esn.lei.potsdam.

MONEY
Germany uses the euro (). Banknotes come in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500. Coins,
whose design depends on in which country they were
minted, come in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50
cents and 1 and 2. Credit and debit card payment is
possible in a wide range of shops, restaurants and nightlife
venues, though always have cash on you for small payments
just in case. This guide indicates which places do not accept
plastic. ATMs can be found everywhere; those that charge
for transactions clearly indicate the fee during the process.
Exchange offices can be found at the major train stations.

VISAS AND ENTRY


FORMALITIES
EU citizens can stay in Germany as long as they like, though
registration at a Brgeramt office is officially required for stays
more than a few months. Citizens of Australia, Canada, Hong
Kong, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Mexico USA and a few
others can enter Germany without a visa for a maximum of 90
days in any six month period. All other nationals need to apply
for a German visa in advance. Note that theres no passport
control between Germany and the other 14 European Schengen countries, and visas to any of these are valid for travel in
Germany too. All visitors need a passport that is valid for at
least fourth months from the date of arrival; EU citizens can
enter with a valid EU identity card too. Check the MFA website
for the latest immigration details: www.auswaertiges-amt.de.

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)
If downtown to you means wide, traffic-filled 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)

CLIMATE

Rainfall (mm)

Germans like their beer, drinking about 107 litres per capita
per year (down from 136 litres 15 years ago). Unfortunately
Berlins local brew, the slightly sour Berliner Weie, is only really palatable mit Schuss, with a shot of sweet fruit sirup. Cocktails and long drinks of varying quality and price are available
in a multitude of places. Non-alcoholic drinks often sipped
in Berlin include Apfelschorle, a refreshing mix of apple juice
and sparkling water, and Club-Mate (kloob mah-tea) ice tea,
made with extract of the South American mat plant, caffeine
and tannins, and is popular with local hipsters as it comes in
a screw top bottle so you can hiply tote it around (or drink to
just below the top label and top it up with wodka).

Temperature C

DRINKS & ALCOHOL

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.

Min Temp (C)

Max Temp (C)

berlin.inyourpocket.com

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 alternative 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
facebook.com/BerlinInYourPocket

dreamstime.com

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.

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 nightlife
scene are Schneberg (SB), the centre of gay Berlin, 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 district of
Zehlendorf (ZD).

Sports in Berlin

Sports in Berlin

www.union-foto-hupe.de

Berlin is without a doubt the German capital of sports


- the city has no less than six professional sports teams,
playing five exciting spectator sports: Hertha BSC and FC
Union play football, the Eisbren is an ace ice hockey team,
Alba is Berlins renowned basketball club, the Fchse play
handball, and volleyball is taken care of by the BR Volleys.
Their home matches attract huge numbers of visitors to
Berlins stadiums; last season alone 2,4 million tickets were
sold for their events. In addition to this, Berlins streets
regularly host huge sports events such as the public
viewing festivals during major sports events abroad, and
the city also hosts countless amateur sports matches.
Despite being rivals, Berlins six professional sports
collaborate to improve the circumstances for professional
sports in Berlin, promoting Berlins image as an international
sports event destination.
ALBA BERLIN (BASKETBALL)
Also known as the Albatrosse,
Berlins basketball club is
Germanys most successful, and
has the largest fanbase; home
matches easily attract 10,000
spectators. Since going pro in
1991, Alba has won the German
League 8 times and the German
Cup 7 times, and was also the first German team to
win an international title. Alba started the season well
with its young new Turkish coach Ahmet Caki, several
newcomers and captain Dragan Milosavljevic.

8 Berlin In Your Pocket

The home matches of Berlins pro teams are easy to visit:


you dont need to understand German to be able to follow
a match and unlike in other European countries, sports
matches in Germany are quite peaceful events, meaning
its no problem to bring the whole family to the stadium
for an afternoon or evening of fun. Finding out about
which matches are playing where can be problematic for
visitors however as the club websites are not all available
in English, and some make it difficult to find the upcoming
playing dates. In the club details here we have listed all
home matches for the following months, though always
keep an eye on the club websites for changes or additional
matches.
Berlins official English-language sports website
www.berlin-sportmetropole.de has information about
all the teams, venues and tickets; ticket booking site
www.eventimsports.de sells tickets for all matches.
Enjoy cheering for Berlin!
FC Union
Berlins other football team always has been a special kind
of club. They were the underfunded rivals of the Stasisponsored Dynamo club and after German reunification
their 22,000-capacity Alte Frsterei stadium was renovated
by thousands of loyal fans. They like to stand, so there are
less than 4000 seats. Also unique is the tradition of singing
Christmas carols by candlelight in the stadium - with about
17,000 fans belting out Stille Nacht. Union has had the best
season start in years, with a dominant recent win over St.
Pauli taking them to second place. New coach Jens Keller
can rely on Felix Kroos as his captain and playmaker, and
has a solid defense line and talented strikers in Collin
Quaner and Philipp Hosiner.

EISBREN BERLIN (ICE HOCKEY)


Originating in 1953 in East
Germanys Dynamo sports
club, the polar bears are
Berlins popular professional
ice hockey team. They won the
national league 7 times, have
also bagged the European
Trophy. Their home matches
at the Mercedes-Benz-Arena
are true familyfests, with a festive, good-humoured
atmosphere. Striker Marcel Noebelsknee injury might
cost him the whole season so lets see if experienced
playmaker Kyle Wilson can get the puck flying around
the Arena again.

Nicknamed Eisern Union (iron union), FC Union is the


working mans football team for Berlin, originating in
East Berlin in 1966 and a feared counterpart for the
GDRs state-influenced Dynamo club. Union is still
fiercely independent, based in their charming An
der Alten Frsterei stadium. The club has resisted all
commercialism, with a club anthem sung by punkrock
legend Nina Hagen, and a stadium partly owned by
passionate fans.

Berlins main football team plays home matches at


the impressive Olympiastadion, Germanys second
largest stadium, built for the 1936 Olympic Games
and renovated for the 2006 World Cup. Hertha was
founded back in 1892 and is know as the Alte Dame,
the old lady, witnessing its glory years between 1926
and 1931. Hertha started off well this year, with plenty
of substitution options for new coach Pal Dardai - they
already have 4 joker goals from people fresh off the
bench.

Berlins museum and gallery world is constantly in flux, and


perhaps now more than ever. Several large museums are
closed for lengthy renovations that will last until the end of the
decade, and the contemporary art scene is on the move, with
artists fleeing the rising rents in the Mitte district for atelier space
in outlying districts and galleries regrouping in new cultural
nodes like Potsdamer Strasse. On this page we highlight a few
of Berlins many excellent galleries and exhibitions.

city. Giants of German art include Heinrich Zille, Otto Dix,
George Grosz, Hannah Hch and Wolf Vostell.QG4, Alte

MARTIN-GROPIUS-BAU:
GERMANY - MEMORIES OF
A NATION
600 years of German history in 200 objects, beginning
and ending in Wall-year 1989. Perhaps only the British
can come up with such a simple and effective concept,
and indeed the exhibition The British View: Germany
- Memories of a Nation was a huge success when it
opened in Londons British Museum, accompanied
by the amazing book and podcasts by initiator Neil
MacGregor.
The objects illustrating the momories of the newly unified
Germany tell stories of great German achievements
from a British perspective, of printing and porcelain, of
philosophers, poets and artists, and of historical events
that have shaped the face of Germany today, including
that most terrible memory of all, the Holocaust. Ernst
Barlachs impressive 1926 floating bronze sculpture is
an amazing WW1 memorial, the recreated Buchenwald
concentration camp gate symbolises Germanys darkest
years while Georg Baselitzs 1977 Eagle etching reflects
on the fragility of ideals.

BOSCH - VISIONS ALIVE
Much of the life of the medieval artist Hieronymus
Bosch is a mystery. He was born in the Dutch town
of Den Bosch around 1450 and had a succesful career
as painter, but only 20 paintings remain. In fact,
only the year of his death, 500 years ago, is factually
known, and celebrated across the world this year with
special exhibitions. In Berlin, the fantastic multimedia
exhibition Hieronymus Bosch Visions Alive has an
introduction hall with background information and
interactive sceens... and then submerges visitors in
Boschs vivid images with details of his most important
works projected on huge screens in two large halls.
As you sit, stand or comfortably lie in darkness, the
walls around show a colourful sequence of magical
animated imagery, set to fitting music. From the
creatures from his 1507 masterpiece Garden of
Earthly Delights to lively scenes from medieval hell,
the 30-minute show - which is played continuously on
loop - is ideally seen twice to catch all the marvellous
details.
Until 30 October. Alte Mnze, Molkenmarkt 2,
MU Klosterstr, tel. +49 1745 76 12 46, www.boschalive.

night from 17 November to 1 January, treating visitors
to a spectacular winters walk through wonderfully lit
foliage and greenhouses. The 1,5km-long route winds its
way inside and outside, past millions of lightpoints and
hundreds of illuminations and 3D figures themed after
Christmas and botany. Theres regional food available at
several places along the route, where you can also warm
yourself by an open fire, or you can try a few pirouettes
on the ice rink skates are for rent.

CONCERTS

Klaus Schein

Its obvious that Germans love 1980s music more than


anyone else and until 19 February, the Wintergartens
show Relax combines dazzling acrobatics with great
singers and a live band playing the best feelgood hits
of the crazy 1980s by Roxette, Depeche Mode, David
Bowie and others. Its sure to evoke strong momories
of the days of CDs, MTV, Italo-disco, disco-funk, neon
colours and strange haircuts.

EXHIBITION:
GERMAN COLONIALISM

EXHIBITIONS
Until 20 November
An Urban Landscape A 360 Panorama of Rome
by Friedrich Loos
Landscape painting underwent a boom around 1800 and
included urban space as a motif. Rome with its ancient ruins
and Mediterranean light offered inspiration for city views.
Central to this cabinet exhibition is a five-part panorama of
Rome painted by Graz-born painter Friedrich Loos in 1850.
AN
Until 9 January
Pina Bausch and the Tanztheater
Pina Bausch (19402009) is recognised as a pioneer of
modern dance theatre and as one of the most influential
choreographers of the twentieth century. This exhibition
focuses not only on the work in terms of staged performances
but above all on the very foundations of the choreographers
oeuvre, on her creative practice and on the key aspects and
people that have accompanied and shaped her progress.
MG
Until 26 February
Golden Ratio
Youll find it in pineapples, in Da Vincis art, in the face of Marilyn
Monroe and in the architecture of Leipzigs Old Town Hall. The
golden ratio seems omnipresent, even in cat photos or videos
of a brawl in the Ukrainian parliament. The proportion ratio,
known since antiquity, was elevated to the harmonic ideal in
the 19th century. Is there a mathematical principle behind this
beauty or is the golden formula just a beautiful myth?
MK
Until 26 February
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner: Hieroglyphics
Kirchners works from the collection of Berlins
Nationalgalerie will be shown for the first time in their
entirety. Hardly any other museum can present the
wide variety of his work as impressively, and they are
complemented by important loans clarifying Kirchners
hieroglyph concept and works by contemporary artists
Rosa Barba and Rudolf Stingel.

14 October - 14 May
The new exhibition German Colonialism Fragments
Past and Present at the Deutsches Historisches Museum
is the first to look at the short but eventful era of German
colonialism, which lasted from 1884 until the end of
the First World War in 1918. Germany was one of the
major colonial powers at that time, but only in recent
years has its colonial past found its way into public
consciousness to a significant degree partly due to
the debates about the recognition of the genocide of
the Herero and Nama people in present-day Namibia.
Colonial ideology, based on the belief of a European
superiority, lead to the routine exercise of violence
up to the colonial war in Namibia, which developed
into genocide. Players in the colonial game, each with
their own aims, included missionaries, officials, military
personnel, settlers and merchants. Learn more about
Germanys controversial memory of its colonial past,
how the affected countries deal with their past and
about the present situation.
DEUTSCHES HISTORISCHES MUSEUM, Unter den
Linden 2, Mitte, www.dhm.de. Open 10:00 - 18:00.

FINE DINING

JOLLY
Opposite the Pergamon Museum, with tourists, trams and
S-Bahn trains gliding by the windows, Jolly is a spacious and
modern restaurant with delicious Cantonese Chinese and
Thai dishes. Specialities include dim sum and Peking roast
duck, served with pancakes and special sauce, but theres
also a wide variety of soups, and good portions of stir-fried
meals and Thai curries, with servings of fluffy rice.QF3,
Am Kupfergraben 4, Mitte, MS/U Friedrichstrae, tel.
+49 30 20 05 95 01, service@restaurant-jolly.de, www.
restaurant-jolly.de. Open 11:30 - 23:30. . AUBS

AIGNER
One of Berlins best places to eat, Aigner is truly
international, as its name, concept and all the old
furnishings originate from a famous Viennese caf that
closed in the 1980s. Master chef Herbert Beltle and his
team serve award-winning dishes with ingredients sourced
fresh from the market.QF3, Franzsische Strae 25,
Mitte, MU Franzsiche Strae, tel. +49 30 203 75 18 50,
www.aigner-gendarmenmarkt.de. Open 12:00-02:00.
. TUGBSW

KAMALA
Respectable Thai cuisine is served in a colonial atmosphere,
where heavy, dark wood tables are adorned with woven
placements, orchids and tall candles. The Tom Yam Gai
soup is crowded with chicken and piping hot, and the
curries are rich and buttery.QF3, Oranienburger Strae
69, Mitte, MU Oranienburger Tor, tel. +49 30 283 27 97,

PANORAMA CAF
The 1930s-style caf at the top of the popular Potsdamer
Platz viewing point has large windows and an open terrace with great views over Berlin, and serves coffee, cakes
and other snacks.QE4, Potsdamer Platz 1, Tiergarten,
MS/U Potsdamer Platz, tel. +49 30 25 93 70 80, www.
panoramapunkt.de. Open 11:00-19:00, Nov-Mar 11:0017:00. Tower admission 6,50/5, family ticket 15,50.
ZUM NUSSBAUM
What seems a charming old restaurant is in fact a charming
new restaurant. The legendary Under the Nut Tree Inn used
to stand on Fischerinsel island, 200m to the southwest.
When the war-ravaged area was rebuilt in the 1980s, the
inn was reconstructed here. Most patrons dont care for
authenticity, and tuck into the well-priced Berlin specialities
with curious translations, such as brown rolls with dripping.
QG3, Am Nussbaum 3, Mitte, MU Klosterstrae, tel.
+49 30 242 30 95. Open from 12:00. . GB
ZUR LETZTEN INSTANZ
Berlins oldest restaurant doesnt lie on the tourist path,
and maybe thats why German leaders bring visiting
heads of state here when everything in Mitte is too
noisy and crowded. Mikhail Gorbachev visited in 1989,
and Gerhard Schrder brought Jacques Chirac over for
the Berlin specialities, including Eisbein, in 2003.QG3,
Waisenstrae 14-16, Mitte, MU Klosterstrae, tel. +49

NEW
OTITO
Staying open later than others in Berlins tourist district,
Otito is a good choice for fresh Vietnamese food at great
prices, to eat in or take away. Theres fried spring rolls,
wantan dumplings, pho soup and a variety of rice dishes
as well as an impressive list of sushi options.QLeipziger

VAN LONG
Best visited for the wide range of Vietnamese specialities,
from all parts of the country, Van Long also has some tasty
Thai options served in a modest space decorated with
Vietnamese art. Try the specials such as the Cha Ca La
Vong fish that you finish grilling at your table, or the Lau
chay clay pot with tofu and vegetables.QReinhardtstrae

www.van-long.de. Open 12:00 - 24:00. .

AUSTRIAN
BRECHT KELLER
The recipes served here are those of a busy Austrian actress
making do with East German ingredients, so though
decent, its not the Tafelspitz (rump steak) thats famous,
but the spirit of the place where playwright Berthold
Brecht and his actress wife Helene Weigel lived. The small
basement cellar is full of family photographs and original
set models of plays like Mother Courage. Also inside is
what could only be described as a romantic brick-lined

Sightseeing
LANDMARKS
BRANDENBURGER TOR
Berlins landmark monument, built by Carl Langhans
in 1792, is the last remaining of 14 city gates. Nike, the
goddess of victory, drives the four-horsepower chariot
atop the gate. German armies used to begin their parades
here, the fascists spoiled the gate by staging their torch-lit
marches through it, the war badly damaged it, and then the
Wall essentially bricked the patched-up gate in for decades.
Berliners celebrated the Walls fall in 1989 by standing on it
in front of the gate, and after renovations the gate is the
proud focus point of the renewed square again.QF3,
Pariser Platz, Mitte, MS/U Brandenburger Tor.
NEUE SYNAGOGE
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.QF3,
Oranienburger Strae 28-30, Mitte, MS Oranienburger Tor,

POTSDAMER PLATZ
Once a busy intersection at the modern heart of a thriving
metropolis, Potsdamer Platz was heavily damaged in the war, and
suffered again when most remaining buildings were demolished
to make way for the Walls death strip. Hotel and office skyscrapers
now add a cosmopolitan edge to the city, while to the east
Leipziger Platz is almost rebuilt. The most popular public space
and architectural attraction is the Sony Center, with its huge
atrium and tent-like roof, best viewed at night for its impressive
lighting. The neighbouring DaimlerChrysler complex holds
architecture by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers, and the Arkaden
shopping mall.QE/F4, MS/U Potsdamer Platz.

Mitte
NIKOLAIVIERTEL
Berlins tiny medieval heart is the Nikolai Quarter, whose only
truly medieval-looking building today is the Nikolaikirche.
The church dates to 1230 and was rebuilt along with the
entire quarter in the 1980s to mark Berlins 750th birthday
in the area in which the fishermens settlement first began.
No one was trying to outdo Walt Disney here, and many
of the buildings have the simple, concrete facades that
the GDR government could afford. The small shops in the
area mostly deal in toys and souvenirs and tourists gladly
fill the sunny tables at the restaurants that face the river.
On Rathausstrae, theres a row of restaurants that flaunt
old-fashioned Berlin cuisine and atmosphere. Other rebuilt
historic buildings in the area date to the 1700s, such as the
Ephraim-Palais and Knoblauchhaus. Both have changing
exhibits related to Berlin.QG3, Nikolaikirchplatz, Mitte,
MU Klosterstrae, www.stadtmuseum.de.
REICHSTAG
The name together with its monumental size make most
people associate Germanys neoclassical parliamentary
building with the Nazis, but they have little history here.
After hosting parliamentary sessions since 1894, it was
set on fire just one month after Hitler was appointed
chancellor in January 1933. It was a conference centre
in the years during which it abutted the Wall, while
later artist Christo famously wrapped it in cloth. It was
used as parliament again after 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. 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. Its best to book an entry
time to the dome or for the 90-minute guided tour of
the building in advance online; otherwise queue up for
remaining places at the visitor centre just across the
road. Photo ID is required.QF3, Platz der Republik

CHURCHES

MEMORIALS

BERLINER DOM
The fourth incarnation of this Protestant church dating
from 1905 might not look as massive if the Stadtschloss
were still standing across Unter den Linden (the GDR
regime demolished the castle in 1951). The royal
Hohenzollern dynasty worshipped and was buried here.

staircases, side exhibit rooms and good views.QG3, Am

FHRERBUNKER
One lonely signpost mark the site where Hitler committed
suicide on April 30, 1945. For the last month of his life,
Hitler lived roughly eight meters below ground in an
air-raid shelter topped by a four-metre-thick, reinforced
concrete ceiling. The unremarkable spot can be reached
by walking to the end of In den Ministergrten, off
Ebertstrae. A parking area surrounded by a prefabricated apartment complex covers the location, which
was entirely sealed off during the complexs construction
in 1988-89. The bunker was once accessed through the
Festsaal (ballroom) behind the Reichskanzler-Palais on
Wilhelmstrae.QF3, In den Ministergrten, Mitte,

DEUTSCHER DOM
The baroque German Church from 1701 was completed
with an impressive domed tower in 1785; badly damaged
by fire in the war it was only renovated in the 1980s.
Owned by the state, the bare interior now houses an
exhibition about the development of parliamentarian
democracy in Germany - and how it came to fail so tragically
in the last century. Be sure to see the views from the windows
and the impressive building models on the top floor. Free

FRANZSISCHER DOM
The northernmost domed tower in the Gendermenmarkts
grand architectural triptych dates back to 1785, and
similarly to its counterpart was badly damaged in the
war. It now has regular concerts in the simple baroque
Friedrichstadtkirche church to the rear. Enter from the
other side for the Huguenot museum (in German and
French only), dedicated to the thousands of French
protestants who moved to Berlin in the 17th century.

MEMORIAL TO THE MURDERED JEWS


OF EUROPE
This bluntly named memorial avoids any vagueness
surrounding the term Holocaust. Six million Jews are
estimated to have been killed by the Nazis and this site
serves as Germanys national memorial to those victims.
The design by American architect Peter Eisenmann is a
field of 2,700 concrete stelae, or pillars, of varying height,

of the familiar, and exhibits on Leni Riefenstahls shooting
of Olympia (1936) and Nazi entertainment cq propaganda
films will impress seen-that film buffs. The museum
ends with special effects and science fiction.QE4,

WEST BERLIN REVIVAL

After the Second World War, the western half of Berlin


found itself in a very curious situation. This group of city
suburbs, which included the chic shopping and theatre
district of Charlottenburg, was suddenly declared a
separate entity from the eastern part of the city, which
included the entire city centre district. After the fall of
the Wall, West Berlin went through a tough decade of
reorientation, as investment and visitors headed east
to the original city centre. Now however, the West is
undergoing something of a revival. Next to the newly
renovated Gedchtniskirche stands the gleaming
new Waldorf Astoria, overlooking the revolutionary
Bikini Berlin concept mall and the linked 25hours
Hotel Bikini Berlin.

The Olympic Stadium was originally built under the

architecture, its size never fails to impress. The most
striking changes are the blue track and the seemingly
floating roof whose translucent skin offers shelter for
almost all of the 75,000 seats. On non-event days you

GEDCHTNISKIRCHE
The ruined Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, a stark reminder of wartime destruction, is West Berlins landmark
attraction. Kept as an open wound, the severe acknowledgement of Germanys culpability is declared on a
plaque: The tower of the old church serves as a remembrance of Gods judgement, which befell our people during the war years. The 1895 church was once a symbol of
national pride: even synagogues contributed to its funding. Inside is a gilded mosaic of the Hohenzollern dynasty.
The modern chapel and bell tower beside it were completed in 1961, and are worth entering on sunny days for the

RAW compound. Crack Bellmer is not just a place for drinking
however; theres film screenings, and a good-sized space
for dancing to DJs at 80s or swing nights. Find the entrance
at the southern end of Simon-Dach-Strae.QI4, Revaler

HABERMEYER
Like many Berlin bars, Habermeyer recycles the 1970s with
its light fixtures and furnishings but it also created its own
unusual wall designs. A popular table football and flipper
machine provide distraction from the loud and very varied DJ
music, though theres no space to dance, but theres free salty
snacks to console you.QJ4, Grtnerstrae 6, Friedrichshain,

CLUBS

STASI MUSEUM
East Germanys State Security 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
family of those they wished to keep an eye on. Today, this humble
museum shows the office of Erich Mielke, the feared Stasi
minister for 32 years, in its original dull state. Theres a video of him
testifying before a panel in 1989, symbols of Communist kitsch,
and many documents in German.QRuschestrae 103, Haus 1,

BERGHAIN
A legendary techno club. Pretty much anything goes on the
main dance floor, in the Panorama Bar and in the dark rooms
of this huge old power plant. The doorman picks from the
queue of hopefuls to create the right mix, so parties are always
varied and exciting. Arrive early Sunday morning for the best
atmosphere. There are concerts and events on weekdays
too, and in summer an outdoor Diskogarten.QI3/4, Am
Wriezener Bahnhof, Friedrichshain, MS Ostbahnhof, tel.

At this homey caf you can wash down your chocolate
croissant with either a coffee or carafe of red wine.
Excepting the wine, you can buy everything here to-go:

MATRIX
Directly underneath under the Warschauer Strae U-Bahn
station DJs lay down tracks of RnB, straight house, soul,
electro, disco and pop on seven dance floors within the
vaults that date back to 1901. Theres always a party here,
365 nights a year. Thursday is student night, Friday has
party classics with free champagne before midnight for
ladies, Saturday is Fruity Night, with juicy cocktails.QI4,

MACONDO
Macondo was the setting of Garca Mrquez novel 100
Years of Solitude, and you could say that its languid tropical
atmosphere perseveres in this wonderful reading caf.
Theres old furniture to sink in to, views over the Sunday
market, good coffee and original South American mate tea,
sipped through a silver straw. Bring a book, and time.QI4,

POSTBAHNHOF CLUB
Popular with students and others in their 20s/30s, this well-run
club set inside the former mail station next to Ostbahnhof has
three dancefloors and an outdoor bar. The music varies nightly
depending on the party theme; everything from 90s, RnB and
rock to house and electro. Unlike other clubs in the area, this
is no overhyped favourite - you can simply expect to have a
good time here. Also known for concerts and other events.

STASI PRISON
The most hard-hitting of all GDR-related museums, the Stasi
Prison shows the sheer brutality of this dictatorship. Used by
the Soviets and the GDRs secret service to extract confessions
in advance of (show) trials, the Hohenschnhausen prison
swallowed thousands of people who underwent horrific
physical and psychological torture in the chilling submarine
cell block and the interrogation rooms. A short film is followed
by an excellent 90-minute guided tour, vividly explaining how
efficiently the prison system worked, and how nobody ever
escaped. Take tram M5 from Alexanderplatz to Freienwalder
Strae and walk 600 metres.QGenslerstrae 66, tel. +49 30
98 60 82 30, www.stiftung-hsh.de. English tours on Wed,
Sat, Sun at 14:30. Admission 5.
THE WALL MUSEUM (MAUERMUSEUM)
Right next to the East Side Gallery, the longest remaining stretch
of the Berlin Wall, this new museum uses films of historic events
and interviews with witnesses plus some exhibits to tell the
story of the structure that split the city from 1961 to 1989. Not
to be confused with the Mauermuseum at Checkpoint Charlie.

METZER ECK
Opened 1913, time seems to have stood still in the oldest
tavern in Prenzlauer Berg - and thats the way the regulars
like it. The Eck serves inexpensive Berlin dishes - sausages,
Boulette (hamburger), and Bratkartoffel (fried potatoes),
and has a letter from artist Heinrich Zille to the first tavern
owner hanging on the back wall, as well as a savings box
that regulars once contributed to.QG2, Metzer Strae 33,

DIE SCHULE
Modern and light German food on Berlins prime catwalk.
Kastanienallee, also known as casting alley, is a perfect
place to watch Berlin street style. Die Schule has a terrace
facing the street and the airy interiors belie that these
rooms used to be classrooms (hence the name). You can
have all the German food classics, and even better: you
can have them all at once: try German Kleinigkeiten, small
samples of everything the local cuisine is famous for.QG2,

POCKET WALK: PRENZLAUER BERG


Start walking uphill along Kollwitzstrae from U-Bahn
station Senefelder Platz. From leafy Kollwitzplatz turn
into beautiful Husemannstrae, which was already
restored in GDR times, and left into Sredzkistrae
where youll spot the Kulturbrauerei complex ahead;
enter beside the tall chimney and wander through its
courtyards to the northern exit. Cross Danziger Strae
and amble down Lychenerstrae to pretty, caf-lined
Helmholtzplatz. Follow Raumerstrae west, turn left
down Pappelallee and cross underneath the U-Bahn
station to Eberswalder Strae; youll soon reach the
popular Mauerpark and the top end of Bernauer Strae
with its excellent Wall Memorial.

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. After
1989, the cool brigade
pounced on the area, and
houses that were once
home to East German
punks were renovated
in odes to pastel. The
number of wine shops and
young parents pushing
pricey prams indicates the level of gentrification here. The
best places to soak up the atmosphere are Kollwitzplatz,
Helmholzplatz and along Kastanienallee. One of Prenzlauer
Bergs best attractions is the Kulturbrauerei culture centre,
set in a 19th-century brewery complex. This chapter also
covers some places in multicultural Wedding, just to the
west.

Prenzlauer Berg
ITALIAN
PIZZERIA I DUE FORNI
Atypical for Berlin, this Italian restaurant is not very chic, the
service is rather cheeky, and the whole place has the feel
of an overcrowded student canteen. But the cheap pizza is
highly praised, and the lively, convivial atmosphere of i Due
Forni is the perfect primer for a night out on the town.QG2,

SUSHI IMBISS AM WASSERTURM
Discounts at happy hour (weekdays 13:00 - 16:00) crowd

sushi-lovers speak some Japanese, but if you need any
explanations, the Japanese owner/chef and staff speak
English.QH2, Rykestrae 45, Prenzlauer Berg, MU

Prenzlauer Berg
SANTIAGO
This cocktail lounge overlooking Kollwitzplatz has a
somewhat dodgy interior leather sofas and glitzy girl
statues that wouldnt look out of place in a nightclub
but manages to get the punters in with a range of
attractively priced offers like cocktails during the happy
(before 20:00) and blue hours (from 01:00). Theres an
eat-all-you-can dinner on Wednesday and brunch at
weekends.QH2, Wrtherstrae 36, Prenzlauer Berg,

WEINSTEIN
An older crowd savours an evening of conversation and
wine at this cosy wine tavern. Pick a meal to help anchor
the 40 vintages available by the glass. There are few better
places to try the outstanding German whites that usually
dont make it out of the country and theres also a selection
of sherries.QH1, Lychener Strae 33, Prenzlauer

CAFS
ANNA BLUME
Named after a lyrical poem and with a sexy Mucha flower
girl on the wall, this is an excellent, relaxed caf. Serving up
coffee, cakes, crepes, meals and the usual Berlin breakfasts,
its one of the better spots for people-watching or just
reading. Intriguingly, it also sells flowers (Blume) from the
connected shop next door and the smell of coffee and
fresh flowers combines very well.QH2, Kollwitzstrae 83,

SCHALL UND RAUCH
Noise and Smoke is a great place to enjoy a breakfast buffet
on lazy weekend mornings, or to down specials at the bar
at night together with a variety of artists, students and
young in-crowd. But its more than just a caf - the adjacent
hotel has modern and affordable double rooms.QG1,

A neighbourhood bar if there ever was one, there arent just
football tables downstairs, but a Kegelbahn (bowling alley)

the seating area is an undulating mass of coats and groups
of friends yakking up a storm. DJs play classics, soul, disco,
and funk in the small back dance room.QG1, Lychner

pastries in the morning.QH1, Lettestrae 6, Prenzlauer

Sightseeing
LANDMARKS
KULTURBRAUEREI
Follow the yellow brick wall of this 19th-century
brewery and youll eventually find an entryway into a
nightlife Mecca that resembles an Old Town setting. A
cobblestone pedestrian way courses through the centre
of the complex, whose 25,000 square metres is filled with
bars, restaurants, clubs, galleries and a cinema. The only
thing you wont find is freshly brewed beer; Schultheiss
shut down production here in 1967. Soda Club is a both
a restaurant and popular nightclub, and Kesselhaus and
Alte Kantine host anything from readings to theater to
live bands.QG2, Schnhauser Allee 36-39, Prenzlauer

Who knew that the Germans fried chicken? Other than a few
Wursts, chicken is all thats served in this cosy corner tavern,
along with sides of coleslaw and mayonnaise-filled potato
salad. The crisp, salty skin gives you another reason for
quaffing yet another beer or wine. For a few euros, you get a
lot of wood-paneled atmosphere.QH4, Leuschnerdamm

POCKET WALK: KREUZBERG


Kreuzberg is best explored in two parts. From Platz der
Luftbrcke station walk west to Viktoriapark and climb the
Kreuzberg for views north over the city. Descend eastwards
and walk along genteel Bergmannstrae, perhaps
visiting a caf or the market hall, before walking south to
Columbiadamm for access to the the former Tempelhof
airport, now a wonderful park.
Start a tour of the fascinating eastern end of Kreuzberg
at Kottbusser Tor U-Bahn station; wander north through
little Istanbul to Oranienplatz and follow the park to
the Engelbecken pond where you can follow the former
Wall along Bethaniendamm to Mariannenplatz, a centre
of Berlin subculture. Stroll down Waldemarstrae to
caf-lined Lausitzerplatz and cross under the U-Bahn
line to lively Grlitzer Park. From here, go north into
Falckensteinstrae to discover more of Kreuzbergs street
art, or head south along Ohlauer Strae and across
Landwehrkanal into the trendy Kreuzklln district for
cupcakes and cocktails.

GETTING THERE
The Bergmannstrae area is best reached from
Friedrichstrae station on the U6; get off at Mehringdamm,
or at Platz der Luftbrcke for the Viktoriapark. For the gritty
end of Kreuzberg hop on the U8 from Alexanderplatz
and pop up at Kottbusser Tor. The Kreuzklln bars are
within pubcrawling distance of Schnleinstrae and
Hermannplatz stations, on the same line.

Thanks to a large Turkish


community and more
hippies, anarchists and
alternative folks than
you can shake a bong at,
Kreuzberg feels neither east
nor west. It was the black
sheep of West Berlin, literally
cornered up against the
death strip and left alone
to play loud music and
draw on the walls. By now,
the protesting students
of 1968 have grown grey
alongside the Turkish immigrants. Every year since 1987,
Kreuzberg relives its 15 minutes of fame during the traditional
May Day political demonstrations, which invariably turn into
a long night of stone-throwing and burning cars. Otherwise,
Kreuzberg is aMITTE
perfectly safe district to wander through, and
its all about backgammon at the mens clubs, caf-sitting
along Landwehrkanal, and ambling down the popular
Oranienstrae and Bergmannstrae drags.
This chapter also covers areas south of Kreuzberg: leafy
Treptow west along the river Spree, the Tempelhof
airport-turned-park which attracts thousands of visitors
in summer, and the upcoming Neuklln district. Here,
the Kreuzklln area around Reuterstrae is increasingly
attracting hipsters, artists, artsy boutiques and weird
nightlife spots.

ISHERWOODS NEIGHBOURHOOD TOUR


In the 1920s Berlin was a veritable Sodom on the Spree
with 85,000 lesbians, open prostitution and an outrageous
club and revue theatre scene - in explosive political
circumstances. The young gay British writer Christopher
Isherwood wove his experiences in Goodbye To Berlin
(of Cabaret movie fame). This excellent one-hour tour
through Isherwoods Berlin around Nollendorfplatz is
spiced up with quotes and references to notorious 1920s
party-goers like Anita Berber and Marlene Dietrich.
