Detailed itinerary

Stop 1 Pass by

On Museum Island, you will find five museums, located on an island in the Spree River where, at the end of the 12th century, the first inhabitants set up home in Cölln, one of the two settlements that gave rise to Berlin. Today, the island is a treasure chest of masterpieces in five museums with 200 rooms, where you can admire artworks spanning a period of over 4000 years.

Stop 2 Pass by

The Brandenburg Gate is the most famous and most widely photographed landmark in Berlin.

It was commissioned in 1791 by Frederick William II of Prussia, who entrusted the task to the German architect Carl Gotthard Langhans, and it was to represent a symbol of peace and unity among peoples.

Stop 3 Pass by

Alexanderplatz is the largest square in Berlin, and one of the largest in Europe.

The history of this large open space dates back to the Middle Ages, when it was a cattle market, which gave the square its original name, Ochsenmarkt, meaning “oxen market”.

Stop 4 Pass by

Potsdamer Platz is the most modern of all the squares in Berlin.

This lively area, with its skyscrapers and shopping malls, features some particularly striking architecture, with buildings that seem to have been constructed with each other’s functions in mind. This sensation is not merely a coincidence.

Stop 5 Pass by

The East Side Gallery is the largest collection of open-air murals drawn on the longest surviving stretch of the Berlin Wall, measuring over one kilometer. Most of the Wall was torn down on November 9, 1989, when thousands of East Berliners stormed the border crossings after hearing Günter Schabowski, a spokesman of the German Democratic Republic, announce their opening on TV.
