Neighborhood · Hidden Gem · Other
Mitte, considered to be the heart of Berlin, doesn't feature many beautiful old buildings, because the area was significantly damaged in World War II. However, you can visit Checkpoint Charlie (an important Berlin Wall checkpoint), Brandenburg Gate (an old city gate rebuilt in the 18th century), Museum Island (a complex of five internationally significant museums), and the Deutscher Dom (a large church). In the center of the city, this area is packed with bars, shops, and restaurants to suit every taste and budget. Make Mitte a part of your Berlin vacation plans using our Berlin trip itinerary app.
