    Berlin - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin Coordinates: 52°30′26″N 13°8′45″E Berlin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Berlin (/bɜːrˈlɪn, ˌbɜːr-/, German: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn]) is the capital and the largest city of Germany as well as one of its 16 Berlin constituent states, Berlin-Brandenburg. With a State of Germany population of approximately 3.7 million,[4] Berlin is the most populous city proper in the European Union and the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Located in northeastern Germany on the banks of the rivers Spree and Havel, it is the centre of the Berlin- Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has roughly 6 million residents from more than 180 nations[6][7][8][9], making it the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one- third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers, canals and lakes.[10] First documented in the 13th century and situated at the crossing of two important historic trade routes,[11] Berlin became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (1417–1701), the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).[12] Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world.[13] After World War II and its subsequent occupation by the victorious countries, the city was divided; East Berlin was declared capital of East Germany, while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall [14] (1961–1989) and East German territory.

  • Erdheilungsreise Nach Berlin Mit Inaara & Anna Vom
    Erdheilungsreise nach Berlin mit Inaara & Anna Vom 15. - 21. Juni 2011 Berlin! Dieser Ruf in mir wurde in den letzten Monaten immer lauter..... Berlin! Was sollte ich dort? Und wann? Warum Berlin? Ich war noch nie dort… Und außerdem, das ganze Jahr war wie die Jahre zuvor verplant. Seit Elias zur Schule geht ist Reisen nur in den Ferien möglich, und diese waren nun mal verplant.... In den Faschingsferien waren wir mit der Ausbildungsgruppe in Ägypten, trotz all der Schwierigkeiten die die politische Lage dort mit sich brachte. Berlin? Ursprünglich sollte ich zu dieser Zeit in Korfu sein, doch die Ausbildung in Angel - Therapy sollte dieses Mal in Freising stattfinden. Keine einzige Anmeldung für Korfu - das gab es noch nie..., aber viele Anfragen zur Ausbildung wie: „Warum machst Du sie nicht in Freising“? Als ich endlich kapierte was die Engel wollten, setzten wir kurzfristig den 1. Teil der Ausbildung über Pfingsten in Freising an. Der Kurs war wieder voll belegt , wie immer wunderschön und sehr informativ! Die Engel gaben durch das unsere ganzen Erdheilungsreisen nach Ägypten, Jordanien, Israel, Griechenland und Malta nötig gewesen wären, um jetzt den nächsten Schritt in Angriff nehmen zu können - den Freisinger Domberg, mit seinem Mutterkristall zu heilen. Freising war immer ein Machtzentrum der Kirche, früher hochrangiger als München, der Machtbereich und Besitz vom Freisinger Kirchenamt reichte bis in die Steiermark, Annas und meiner Heimat. Wichtige Ley-Lines gehen genau über den Domberg, damals wusste die katholische Kirche schon wo sie ihre Kirchen hinbauen sollte. Es waren meist Kraftorte. Malta ist zum Beispiel eines der hochenergetischsten Plätze der Erde.

  • Exchange Report Freie Universität Berlin
    Exchange Report Freie Universität Berlin After coming to Berlin, I had to start immediately with classes. Before the courses started I had the change to take a German language course. It was an intensive course offered for all international students that takes place in September until the mid-October, before the courses started. The course was quite good, and the classes were quite small, and we could interact with the teacher. Unfortunately, if you do not have some knowledge of German you can not take this course since there are no language course for beginner offered by the university. One of the struggle that I has was finding the courses that I wanted for my exchange semester. After I came to Berlin I tried to sign up for the courses that I had in my learning agreement, unfortunately, l found out that some master programme taught in English, even if are offered by the Freie Universität Berlin, they are not for Erasmus students and I was told that I had to pay if I wanted to take these courses. Since, the price for the curses was quite high I decided to take some other classes in entrepreneurship. However, if you decided to take a course that are not from your department it is up to the professor to accept students to take part to a course or not. I tried to ask to take some classes in entrepreneurship and in many cases I was told that there was not more space for those courses and that I could not join the class.

The2 Berlin Wall The Wall was both a physical barrier between West Berlin and East Germany, and the symbolic boundary between western democracy and Communism during the Cold War. Started in August 1961, the wall was 96 miles (155 km) long and had a height of 11.8 ft. (3.6 m) in the section that divided the city. Little remains of the Berlin Wall within the city itself. A double row of cobblestones traces its 3.5 mile (5.5 km) route through the city center, while the Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Strasse includes a preserved 197 ft. (60 m) strip of “no man’s land” where the wall once divided the city.

    WHAT Architect WHERE Notes Zone 1: Mitte The Futurium, completed in 2017, is a building for exhibitions and events in the heart of Berlin – embedded between the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (ministry for education and research), the Spreebogen (Spree Riverbend) and the Humboldthafen (Humboldt port), the main station and the Charité *** Futurium Richter Musikowski Alexanderufer 2 Hospital. The Haus der Zukunft (house of the future) creates its own sculptural identity in this ensemble. On the two main sides of the Futurium two public spaces are defined by setting back the building. Folding the building up to create urban high points makes the Futurium a striking appearance between the Spree River and the elevated railway. Check events https://futurium.de/en/ This new building, inaugurated in 2003, owes its name to the social politician and women’s rights campaigner Marie Elisabeth Lüders. Alongside the Parliamentary Library and specialist scientific service providers it also accommodates a Wall memorial open to the public. Parts of the Berlin Wall have been rebuilt here to commemorate the Marie-Elisabeth **** Stephan Braunfels Schiffbauerdamm 25 division of the city along the former route of the Wall. Together with Lüders Building the Federal Chancellory and Paul-Löbe-House, Marie-Elisabeth-Lüders House also forms part of “Federal Row”, an architectural symbol of German unity.
