Top 5 historical landmarks of Berlin, Germany

History is palpable in Berlin. The tumultuous past of Germany remains in the forefront of its citizens’ minds through monuments, memorials, and the few historic sites that weren’t bombed during WWII. Be sure to visit these five in the capital city.

  • Stasi Museum and Prison & The Berlin-Hohenschönhausen Memorial

    1. Stasi Museum and Prison & The Berlin-Hohenschönhausen Memorial

    You’ll have to head east for a deeper look into Soviet East Germany; these are some of the only landmarks that weren’t stormed by citizens after the fall of the Wall.

  • Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

    2. Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

    Completed in 2004, the holocaust memorial is considered to be one of the most harrowing of our time, representing a system of lost touch with humanity.

  • Brandenburg Gate

    3. Brandenburg Gate

    It was damaged during WWII, then hidden away between the East and West sides of the Berlin Wall. Restored and public, Germany’s most famous landmark is pure Prussian stateliness.

  • The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church

    4. The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church

    Berliners call the Gedächtniskirche “The Hollow Tooth” because its spire was never reconstructed after WWII to serve as a reminder of war’s terrible destruction.

  • The Berlin Wall and Checkpoint Charlie

    5. The Berlin Wall and Checkpoint Charlie

    Small lengths of graffiti-covered giants remain of The Wall, that which divided Europe with its internal “death strip” from 1961 to 1989.
