First of all, the place, which is a must-see during cultural trips around Berlin, is a so-called „Museum Island". This 5- world class museums' complex is located on the Museum Island in the Spree river. These 5 museums were established between 19th and 20th centuries. They gather significant collections starting from ancient egipt, roma, greece, through a collection of 19th-century art. I would like to pay your attention to the Pergamon Museum which is most popular museum in Berlin with a collection of full-size reconstructions of ancient monumental buildings: the radiant-blue Ishtar Gate from Babylon, the Roman Market Gate of Miletus, the Caliph's Palace of Mshatta and Pergamon Altar. Pergamon Altar is considered to be ne of the wonders of the ancient world from 2th century BC.The another interesting museum, which is something that probably all visitors to Berlin should see, is the Topography of Terror. It is also one of the most fascinating and thought provoking places you can visit. The museum was built on the site of the former headquarters of the Gestapo. The site also contains part of the former Berlin Wall which divided Berlin into two zones the eastern and western in 1961 - 1989. The museum depicts the rise of the Nazi party, the end of war and its war atrocities.
For cars lovers we strongly reccommend visiting the unique place of The Classic Remise Berlin with the extraordinary display of historic and classic vehicles. The exhibition is placed in a historic tram depot, built in the end of 19th century. Entrance is free, but if you would like to seek into the history of that historical place and get an overview of the current dealers, shops and services, then private tours are available.
The small, inconspicuous Game Science Center in Berlin is a place where you can experience great fun during playing interactive games. That place is for everyone, children, young people and adults. Founders have created a platform for new 'smaller' projects which can be tasted in one place. The museum depicts interactive technology in unique way.
