The Holocaust Memorial is a central place in Berlin that commemorates the murder of the approximately six million Jews in Europe at the time of the Holocaust. The American architect Peter Eisenmann prevailed with his design in the artistic competition. The abstract wave-like form with over 2700 concrete steles is intended to stimulate reflection.

Unter den Linden was initially only a bridle path until Frederick the Great saw to its expansion into a large promenade. His equestrian statue still adorns the eastern end of the street. Today, the historic street is part of the city's lifestyle with numerous magnificent buildings that were rebuilt after World War II. These include the Princess Palace, the Armory, the Crown Prince Palace and the Opera House. We will introduce you to the history of the street Unter den Linden and its buildings on our city tour.

A visit to the Berlin Philharmonic Hall is worth a trip in any case. After the old building was destroyed in World War II, the new Philharmonie was built in 1963 according to the plans of Hans Scharoun. Famous conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, Claudio Abbado and Sir Simon Rattle have helped the Berlin Philharmonie achieve worldwide fame in recent decades. The outstanding acoustics were calculated in detail at the planning stage and are still the standard by which other philharmonic halls are measured today. A component of the Berlin Philharmonic Hall is also a built-in organ, which comprises 91 stops. Due to the so-called "Weinberg architecture", one has a very good view of the stage almost everywhere.
