A trip to Berlin is like taking a walk through the history of 20th-century Europe. From the Kingdom of Prussia in the late 1800s, the German Empire of WWI, the Weimar Republic, Nazi Germany in WWII, East Germany, and Reunified Germany in 1990 (Federal Republic of Germany), all of it can be seen in the architecture that has shaped its storied past.
Present-day Berlin, as a result, is an overflowing hotbed of activity, teeming with culture and energy. Some of the best music, food, artwork, and shopping can be found in Berlin and architecture is undoubtably at the forefront.
Check out Berlin’s amazing #mustseearchitecture below.
Contemporary Architecture
New German Parliament Dome (Reichstag)
The original Reichstag opened as the Parliament for Imperial Germany back in 1894. While it was only used for propaganda photos for Nazi Germany during World War II, the building was a symbol for the party and was heavily damaged by Russian invasion and left in disrepair until German Reunification almost than 50 years later in 1990. It was then when reconstruction efforts began by the German government under the direction of Norman Foster, and was completed 9 years later in 1999. While the building itself was completely stripped on the inside, graffiti written by Russian soldiers including “Hitler kaputt” was left as a reminder of its past. Foster’s signature design is unquestionably its spiral glass dome on the roof that provides a 360-degree view of the Berlin skyline, as well as views to the parliament below.

Jewish Museum
The Jewish Museum in Berlin is the largest of its kind in Europe and consists of three buildings, two of which were designed by renowned Jewish architect Daniel Libeskind. The original museum was founded on 24 January 1933 and was closed 5 years later on 10 November 1938, during the infamous Kristallnacht when the Gestapo closed the building and confiscated the items.
The new museum design was the result of an anonymous competition by the Berlin government in 1988, which was won by Libeskind and built between 1992-1999. The design is nicknamed “Blitz” (lightning) for its zigzag shape and metallic exterior.

Netherlands Embassy
The Dutch Embassy by OMA is noted for its block shape, contemporary design, and continuous internal corridor that defines its exterior. At the time of its inception, the German government originally required that the building be designed in 19th-century fashion and occupy the full block to fit the aesthetic of Mitte, the oldest borough of Berlin. OMA was able to convince authorities of the benefits of a contemporary design by compromising with them through a block design. The corridor, then, became a design feature and connects all of the internal rooms creating opportunities for informal meetings.

Chapel of Reconciliation
The Chapel of Reconciliation stands in the place of the former Church of Reconciliation in Mitte, Berlin. During the division of the city in 1945, the church lied right on the border of East and West Berlin with the church being on the Soviet side while its parishioners lived in the west. When the wall went up in 1961, it literally cut off the church from its members. At first, the
The new design by Peter Sassenroth and Rudolph Reiterman was intended to be a modern representation of the church that was respectful of the site’s ecology and history. The outer oval wall are made out of wood to represent the shape of the original church while the inner oval is made from pressed clay.

Modern Architecture
Berlin Tempelhof Airport
The now defunct Tempelhof airport was one of the most iconic pre-World War II airports in Europe. Originally constructed in 1926, the Nazi government rebuilt it in the mid-1930’s in expectation of increased air traffic. The airport’s sleek interior design and large canopy that extends over the apron, protecting planes and awaiting passengers, are its most distinguishable design features.

Neue National Gallery
The Neue National Gallery is a modern art museum designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1968. The building is composed of two floors – one above grade and one below. The above grade pavilion serves as its welcoming area and is surrounded with floor-to-ceiling glazing and eight cruciform columns (two on each side) that are located in the middle of the perimeter sides to avoid the corners. Once you step into the building, you’ll notice the sheer lack of columns. That’s because the 1.8m deep, painted black roof is a giant cantilevered square that keeps the gallery floor open.

Berlin Philharmonic
Designed by celebrated German architect Hans Scharoun and opened in 1963, the Berlin Philharmonic is a fine example of modern architect that combines Scharoun’s organic and futuristic aesthetic. This can be seen in the roof’s tent-like design that continues on the inside for dramatic interior views within the foyer and central spaces. The building has two main halls, a large auditorium seating 2,500 people, and a smaller, chamber music halls which seats 1,200.

Schwimmhalle Finckensteinallee
The Schwimmhalle Finckensteinallee was built in 1938 as a training facility and architectural showpiece for the SS regiment Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler (Hitler’s personal bodyguard). At its time, it was regarded as one the largest and most modern facilities in Europe and stands as an outstanding example of National Socialist architecture. The design features a skylight that spans over the entire length of the pool and includes two separate entrance portals with statues that idealize the National Socialist view of the sexes.
Due to gradual damage over time, a renovation in 2011 by Veauthier Meyer Architects beautifully refreshed the building’s exterior and interior spaces. A new ceiling references the original skylight.

AEG Turbinenfabrik
This industrial building in the Moabit district of Berlin is the best-known work of German architect Peter Behrens in the Werkbund style. While its design may seem relatively innocuous today, it was remarkably progressive for its time. Most industrial buildings of the era were built behind these historic, castle-like facades where the functions of the space were secondary to the building’s exterior. The AEG Turbinenfabrik turned that thinking on its head, to the point where the factory was designed with so much foresight that it’s still producing turbines more than 100 years later – a remarkable accomplishment considering the nature of industrial spaces today.
The neoclassical-inspired design of the building features a 100m long and 15m tall interior space with non-structural gable ends and trabeated stone columns on its sides. These features are broken by

Unite d’Habitation of Berlin
Colloquially known as the Corbusierhaus, the Unite d’Habitation of Berlin is one of 5 Le Corbusier-designed and built Unité d’Habitation concepts and the only one located outside of France. The building is one of the first examples of early Brutalism and is constructed out of precast concrete panels and poured ceiling slabs.
The design of the building was dramatically altered through the course of the design process in large part due to the heavy hand of the Berlin Building Department. Combined living and kitchen spaces were deemed illegal, and the kindergarten, stores and businesses on the 5th floor, and social spaces throughout the building were all removed as well.

Niemeyer and Fiho chose to raise the building off the ground using V-shaped pillars. Residents access the building through 6 unique staircases clad in mosaic tiles. The facade is characterized by its use of blue and yellow balconies, as well as a polka-dot elevator and staircase that stands next to the building.
