What to do and see in Berlin, Germany: The Best Cemeteries

February 21, 2022 Hector Krause

Berlin is an edgy city, from its fashion to its architecture to its charged political history. The Berlin Wall is a sobering reminder of the hyper-charged postwar atmosphere, and yet the graffiti art that now covers its remnants has become symbolic of social progress. Check out the Weltzeituhr (world time) Clock, topped by a model of the solar system, then turn back time by dining at the historic Zur Letzten Instanz, a 16th century restaurant that was frequented by Napoleon and Beethoven.

Me and the wife were driving back from spandau and saw the signs for the cemetery, so we popped in to pay our respects. Lovingly maintained as always by the Commonwealth War graves. When ever you go make sure you sign the book. Just as a wee apprication for the staff that look after the place.

Dorotheenstadt Cemetery

Reviewed By Wellington24 - Milton, United States

This cemetery is nice, but the chapel is the real attraction. After being damaged in WW2, it has been completely reclaimed and renovated using the talents of world famous light/space artist, James Turrell. The light show (which is closer to meditation time with cool lights than to a performance) is very cool and worth a visit.
