Berlin-Tiergarten, City Berlin

Berlin Tiergarten (the Zoo) ? the Lugs of Berlin

The Tiergarten (Zoo) is not just a quarter in Berlin’s center but also Berlin’s largest city park.  
In 1785 Prince August Ferdinand had his summer residence, the Bellevue Castle, built here which today is the official residence of Germany’s Federal President. The quarter is crossed from west to east by the Street of the 17th of June and the Victory Column thrones at the Big Star.

Many tourists who book a pension, a vacation home, an apartment or a hotel in Berlin Tiergarten, come to Berlin looking for traces of Germany’s eventful history. You can already see the Parliament Building, the Federal Chancellery and the delegates’ offices from the Brandenburg Gate.

Grouped around the Mathhaei church square you will find the museum of applied arts, the chamber music hall, the copper engraving and painting galleries, with such famous works of art as Rembrandt’s “Man with a Golden Helmet”.

The German Resistance Memorial is not far from the culture forum. The National Library and the steel and glass hall of the New Gallery, with artwork by Edvard Munch and Max Ernst, are on the east side of the square. 
The golden roof of the philharmonic orchestra shines and in the museum of musical instruments you can marvel at exhibits used to make music in the past centuries.

If you book a pension, vacation home, apartment or a hotel in Berlin Tiergarten (Zoo), you will experience a diversified stay in the midst of the hearty people of this capital city, tranquil nature, history up close, art treasures and the flair of a large city.
