Charlottenburg ? Cosmopolitan Flair and Tradition

Berlin’s district Charlottenburg lies east of the Havel River and south of the Spree River. At Breitscheid Square, the ruins of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church rise into the sky, the remains of sad German history. 

Right next to it, the Europa Center arises, from the 86 meter high observation deck, you can see Berlin the way it is today, colorful, cosmopolitan and attractive. Tourists from all over the world book an apartment, a pension, a vacation home or a hotel in Berlin and feel heartily welcomed by their friendly Berlin hosts. 

In 1695, the Elector Friedrich III had the pleasure palace Charlottenburg built for his wife, Sophie Charlotte, in the heart of the Charlottenburg district. Directly next to it you will find the Egyptian Museum with the Nofretete bust and the Berggruen Museum which exhibits modern art. 

The area around the Breitscheid Square is the liveliest in Berlin; from here Berlin’s number one promenade, the Kurfürstendamm, stretches 3.5 kilometers long to Wilmersdorf. Here noble shopping and strolling is the thing to do. All of Berlin’s important events take place in the West End at the exhibition center underneath the radio tower. 

Many of the city’s guests spend the night in a pension, vacation home, an apartment or a hotel to see performances in the theaters of Charlottenburg. The stages of the Theater of the West or the Theater at Kurfürstendamm are to found here for example.
