A Day in Kreuzberg
-
Morning
Start from the famous ruins of Anhalter Bahnhof , which you can reach by S-Bahn. From here continue along Stresemannstraße in a north-westerly direction to the Martin-Gropius-Bau . It is easy to while away a few hours in this impressive building if there is a special exhibition. You could take a break for refreshments in the museum café. A visit to the neighbouring exhibition, the Topographie des Terrors afterwards will bring you face to face with the dark Nazi past of this area. Continue along Niederkirchnerstraße, past an original section of the Berlin Wall, to Wilhelmstraße. Then turn into Kochstraße to visit Checkpoint Charlie and the museum at the former border .
Afternoon
You can buy a tasty lunch at Sale e Tabacchi in Kochstraße. Continue along Kochstraße in an easterly direction and you will get to the heart of Kreuzberg. Make a detour south on Lindenstraße to the Jüdisches Museum or carry on into Oranienstraße . Take the U-Bahn U6 from U-Bahn station Kottbusser Tor to Platz der Luftbrücke. The Viktoriapark nearby is a good place for a rest, while shopaholics prefer a stroll up and down Bergmannstraße. At the end, turn north into Baerwaldstraße and continue to Carl-Herz-Ufer, where you will be able to round off the day with a delicious evening meal at the Altes Zollhaus .
