    Berlin, Capital of the Federal Republic of Germany, is located at the heart of Europe and also, after EU enlargement in 2004, at the centre of the European Community. With about 3,400,000 inhabitants, Berlin is the largest City in Germany. It is 38 kilometres long and 45 kilometres wide and covers an area of 889 square kilometres. In the middle of the Brandenburg region, the city occupies the flatlands on the banks of the Havel and Spree rivers and is criss-crossed with numerous canals. BY AIRPLANE: You can fly to Berlin from 167 airports in 53 countries. Aircrafts operated by over 67 different airlines land in Berlin. If charter flights are included, that figure rises to 99. The largest of Berlin's three airports are Tegel and Schönefeld. Tegel continues to function as the gateway to western Europe. Most of the flights to eastern Europe and Asia are handled by Schönefeld. Airport Tegel (TXL) 13405 Berlin (Reinickendorf) Tegel is situated in north-west Berlin, approximately 8 km from the city-centre. The airport is located conveniently within Berlin, in ca. 15 minutes the western city centre can be reached. Apart from the buses 109 and 128 the bus X9 which leaves from the train station Zoologischer Garten connects the airport to the city centre, this bus stops only at the main subway stations, therefore the ride doesn't take long.

  • Bertelsmann and Berlin Underground Builders Transform U5 Station Into Underground Gallery
    PRESS RELEASE ‘BAU X KUNST’: Bertelsmann and Berlin Underground Builders Transform U5 Station into Underground Gallery • Large-format oil paintings by the plein-air painter Christopher Lehmpfuhl document the complete construction cycle of the Humboldt Forum • Free admission to the exhibition in the future underground station “Unter den Linden” on two “Open Construction Site Days” at the end of October Berlin, October 1, 2018 – The international media company Bertelsmann and Projektgesellschaft U5, the project company responsible for the construction of the subway, are transforming Berlin’s future junction station “Unter den Linden” into an underground gallery. On October 27 and 28, under the heading “BAU X KUNST,” large-format works by the Berlin-based plein-air painter Christopher Lehmpfuhl will be on display, dedicated to the spectacular construction activities on nearby Schlossplatz: Over a period of ten years, Lehmpfuhl documented first the demolition of the former Palace of the Republic, and then the gradual reconstruction of the Berlin Palace including the Humboldt Forum. Several of his paintings were created on the rooftop of Bertelsmann Unter den Linden 1. Lehmpfuhl’s open- air paintings will now make their public underground debut for a short time. The already well- advanced underground station “Unter den Linden” will be open to the public during the exhibition. Besides art, the two “Open Construction Site Days” will feature information on six years of underground construction, as well as insights into the tunnel and the three-story construction built by the project company U5 on behalf of the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG, Berlin Transport Authority). Christopher Lehmpfuhl, who has accompanied Berlin’s transformation in his art over the decades, has also been following the major architectural changes at Schlossplatz since 2008, producing more than a hundred expressionist oil paintings of the various construction phases to date.
