BERLIN has it all, from history to hipsters, but what sets the German capital apart from any other city in the world is its unique past.
It was the center of the Prussian Empire and the capital of the German Reich. After World War I it became the busiest metropolis on the continent and the epitome of the Golden Twenties. When Adolf Hitler came to power he planned to remodel Berlin as the future »World Capital Germania«. It was Berlin where the Nazis resolved the systematic killing of all European Jews, it was Berlin from where the Führer ignited World War II and it was Berlin where Germany surrendered unconditionally in 1945. The uprising of the Cold War and the building of the Wall set the tone for the coming decades. Berlin was at the demarcation line of two political systems and superpowers. Only after the peaceful revolution in the GDR and the Fall of the Wall was the city able to become the capital of a reunited Germany again.
