Guided Story

Imagine standing here on a bridge that was missing for nearly half a century. After World War II, the Ebertsbrücke was gone, only to be rebuilt in 1992. Look to your left, and you'll see the Bode Museum. Picture the days when people had to find other ways to cross the Spree. Behind you, the Friedrichstadt-Palast, a place of glitz and glamour, stood in stark contrast to the emptiness here back then. The bridge might seem modest, but it tells a story of reconstruction and connection. Feel the city's heartbeat as you gaze across the Spree and watch the boats pass by.
