Since the fall of the Wall, the German capital’s evolution has been remarkable. Industrial spaces now host an abundance of striking private art galleries, and the city’s landscapes have been redefined by cutting-edge architecture and thought-provoking monuments. I invite you to join me in May 2022 for a five-day, behind-the-scenes immersion into the best Berlin has to offer, from its historic museum collections and lavish Prussian palaces to its elegant opera houses and electrifying contemporary art scene.

The three books men- tioned above are subtitled »The architectural work today«; in other words, they are exclusively about buildings that still exist. This is also true of the present selection. The question whether this se- lection and limitation to Berlin and Potsdam is representative of the work of the three architects can clearly be answered in the affirmative. For Persius this question does not even arise, because during his short life he worked almost exclusively in Potsdam and its immediate vicinity – he was the »King’s architect«. Stüler’s Distributors work is found in a region extending from Cologne on the Rhine to Masuria, with some important buildings in Stockholm and Brockhaus Commission Budapest as well. About a quarter of his works can be found in Kreidlerstraße 9 Potsdam and Berlin, where Stüler, too, was the »King’s architect«.

    STIFTUNG PREUSSISCHE SCHLÖSSER UND GÄRTEN BERLIN-bRANDENBURG 1 JAHRESBERICHT 2014 JAHRESBERICHT 2014 VORWORT Für die Stiftung Preußische Schlösser und Gärten Berlin-Brandenburg ist jedes Jahr ein Gartenjahr, aber 2014 war eines, das in besonderer Weise in Erinnerung bleibt. Denn erstmals haben wir einen Garten zum Exponat gemacht. Der mitten im UNESCO-Welt- erbe gelegene Park Sanssouci wurde eine Saison lang zum „Paradiesapfel“. Die vielbesuchte Ausstellung gleichen Namens präsentierte ihn nicht nur mit seinem gesamten „Inventar“ – den Pflanzen, Skulpturen und Architekturen –, sondern thematisierte die gärtnerische Praxis genauso wie die Aufgaben des Naturschutzes oder die Auswirkungen des Klimawandels. Dass letzterer eine enorme Herausforderung ist, bestätigte die internationale Konferenz „Historische Gärten im Klimawandel“, die wir gemeinsam mit der Deutschen Bundes- stiftung Umwelt ausgerichtet haben. Die hier verabschiedete „Erklärung von Sanssouci“ war der Impuls für ein interdisziplinäres Netzwerk von Denkmalpflegern, Natur- und Geisteswissenschaftlern, die nun gemeinsam Handlungsstrategien für die Bewahrung der Potsdam-Berliner Kulturlandschaft entwickeln werden. Deren Erhalt dient auch das Sonderinvestitionsprogramm, das der Bund sowie die Länder Brandenburg und Berlin zur Rettung bedeutender Denkmäler der Berliner und Potsdamer Schlösserlandschaft aufgelegt haben. 2014 stand deshalb erneut im Zeichen dieses Masterplans. Ob Babelsberg, Cecilienhof oder Rheinsberg, überall konnten dringend notwendige Sanierungsarbeiten begonnen,

If you've already done any of our other walks, you'll know how it works but if not, I'll tell you now. As you've probably already noticed, each of these sections of the walk that you've downloaded on to your machine has a name - this first one is ‘The Reichstag’. Just consider each of these walks as individual tracks on an 'album' which is the complete tour of Berlin. You'll hear directions about where to go next at the end of each section but the route and the stopping points are also marked on your map which is on page four of this Printed Guide. When you get to a stopping point find somewhere to stand or sit which is out of the way of people and traffic and then play the relevant section of the walk. The map has been especially produced to help you find your way while you're listening to the audio guide which means that it's not drawn exactly to scale. Top tip: when you print out this Printed Guide or, at least, the map, set your printer to high quality or fine print so that the map is as clear as possible and easy to read.
