Top 10 Best of the Rest
-
1. Charité
Many important physicians, such as Rudolf Virchow and Robert Koch, worked and taught at this world-famous hospital, founded in 1710. A Museum of Pathology has some 23,000 remarkable exhibits on display.
-
2. Alte and Neue Schönhauser Straße
Alte Schönhauser Straße is one of the oldest streets in Spandauer Vorstadt. The lively road is still characterized by a colourful jumble of traditional and trendy new shops.
-
3. Deutsches Theater
Once Max Reinhardt’s place of work, the theatre – widely considered the best German-language theatre – shows mainly German classics, often in new interpretations.
-
4. Berliner Ensemble
This theatre, established in 1891–2 by Heinrich Seeling, was the main venue for Bertolt Brecht’s plays.
-
5. Hochbunker
One of the last surviving World War II bunkers.
-
6. Monbijoupark
A small park, in which once stood the little Monbijou palace. It is now an attractive green space for a rest.
-
7. Auguststraße
The area round this road is one of the closest to the original old Scheunenviertel, featuring old interior courtyards and many buildings that have not yet been restored.
-
8. Koppenplatz
In this small square, a monument of a table and upturned chair recall the expulsion of the Jews.
-
9. Sophienkirche
This parish church, built in 1712, has managed to preserve its traditional Old Berlin charm. Be sure to see the Baroque pulpit.
-
10. Tucholskystraße
This narrow street is typical of the transformation of Scheunenviertel – trendy shops next to decaying façades.
