The capital of Germany is today one of the most important and emblematic cities across Europe. Founded and built in the thirteenth century, the ancient capital of several empires, like that of Prussia, has now become a city with a liberal lifestyle and a very particular style of art.

Berlin is a city haunted by the past, with an immeasurable historical significance. The former palace of Stadtschloss, former residence of the emperors of Prussia in 1701 became, later, the heart of the city, back in 1871. The Reichstag, with its bloody connotations, it rises in the center of town, near the ruins of the Berlin Wall. There are still remnants of the wall, which has remained at less than 1km in length from its demolition in 1989.

Wall apart, Berlin is a young city. The graffiti and urban life fills every corner of the city, a city with its own culture. Modernity is seen in the new Potsdamer Platz, where business and leisure meets. The Bundeskanzleramt, the new offices of Chancellor, is known as “the machine” by Berliners, because of its white cube-shaped with round windows.

Museumsinsel is recommended to visit the Museum Island, which houses art treasures from the time of Nefertiti to Beyus. Without doubt, Berlin is the heart of Germany, a city with an urban and unique art, but with all the German seriousness.
