Sights in Tiergarten

Potsdamer Platz

Potsdamer Platz, which was completely reconstructed after the fall of the Wall, conveys a cosmopolitan flair with entertainment and shopping facilities, cafés, restaurants, and cinemas. In addition to offices, there are also exclusive lofts and penthouse apartments in the futuristic high-rises.

Tiergartenviertel

The Tiergartenviertel south of the Tiergarten is also known as the Diplomatic Quarter or Embassy Quarter. The neighborhood has been revitalized as a residential area and features many luxurious high-end apartment buildings. Of course, numerous embassies also still reside here. The most magnificent embassy buildings - those of the Spanish, Italian and Japanese embassy - date from the 1930s. The southern border of the neighborhood is the Landwehr Canal.

Lützowviertel

The Lützowviertel is characterized by a mixture of old houses, post-war buildings and uspcale apartment buildings. Only a few buildings still recall the pre-war period, for example the villas in Derfflingerstraße and Begaswinkel and the house on Lützowplatz. The lifeline of the neighborhood is Potsdamer Straße. Here, you will find many Turkish supermarkets and design stores next to hotels and offices.
