Berlin - Prenzlauer Berg
Prenzlauer Berg emerged as one of Berlin’s most desirable and well-heeled neighbourhoods after reunification. The one must-see sight is the Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer, the city’s best place to understand the layout and impact of the Berlin Wall.
- come to grips with the absurdity of a divided city at the Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer memo-rial exhibit that follows the course of a 1.4km-long stretch of the Berlin Wall.
- spend a sunny Sunday digging for flea-market treasures and cheering on karaoke croon-ers in popular Mauerpark, which was reclaimed from a section of the Berlin Wall death strip.
- catch a concert, movie or street-food market at the Kulturbrauerei, a venerable red-brick brewery turned cultural centre.
Coverage includes: Neighbourhood Top Five, Local Life, Getting There & Away, Sights, Eating, Drinking & Nightlife, Entertainment and Shopping.
