About Tiergarten
What are the main landmarks in Tiergarten?
Tiergarten holds some of Berlin's greatest sights, from the Brandenburg Gate to the domed Reichstag. A museum cluster gathers the Gemäldegalerie, the Neue Nationalgalerie and the Bauhaus-Archiv, while the Hamburger Bahnhof shows modern art in an old station. Monuments crowd the district.
The Soviet War Memorial, the German Resistance Memorial Center and the Tränenpalast each mark a chapter of the city's past, and the Haus der Kulturen der Welt stages the arts nearby.
What is the history of Tiergarten?
Tiergarten began as a royal hunting ground beside old Berlin, the wooded park that gave the district its name. Kings once rode here. Around it rose the Brandenburg Gate and later the Reichstag, and over time the parkland gathered the museums and memorials that fill Tiergarten, from the Soviet War Memorial to the Bauhaus-Archiv.
Where is Tiergarten?
