Day 17 - Thursday 11 June

Berlin (3).

We caught the bus to the Kreuzberg area, then walked through Mariannenplatz, which includes the Fire Brigade fountain, the Kunstlerhaus Bethanien, and the St. Thomas Church. However, the destination was the outlet store of one of Di's favourite shoe brands - Trippen.





Next we visited the Reichstag Dome (booked the previous day) - impressive.


We then visited the Memorial to the Sinti and Roma victims of National Socialism.



Next we visited the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe.


After a German lunch we went to Hackeschen Hofe, a restored heritage area of connecting courtyards, which house boutiques, restaurants, bars and offices. 


Bill then went to the Story of Berlin, a museum displaying the 800 years of Berlin, and then walked home along Kurfurstendamm, and observed what Berliners love to do.
