Guided Story

Look up. The graceful tower rises proudly against the sky. Did you know that once, a massive bell was perched atop this tower, its sound echoing across the stadium grounds during the 1936 Olympics? To your left, you'll see the vast Maifeld, once used for grand parades. Turn around slowly and take in the sweeping view over the Grunewald. On clear days, you might even spot the distant hills. The best time to be here? Definitely at sunset. The city transforms into a sea of gold and shadows.
