Hidden Gems of Berlin | Episode 7 🦁🇩🇪 **

Have you ever crossed a bridge in Berlin without looking twice?

Next time you’re in Tiergarten, look a little closer.

Guarding one of the park’s most beautiful bridges are four magnificent golden lions — each with a story that’s easy to miss if you don’t know where to look.

In this episode, Mike uncovers the history behind these remarkable sculptures, why they were placed here, and the role they’ve played through Berlin’s ever-changing past.

Sometimes, the city’s most fascinating stories aren’t hidden behind walls — they’re waiting in plain sight.

Come for the lions. Stay for the story. Join us at

If you’ve ever walked through West Berlin, you’ve likely stopped to look up at this jagged tower and wondered about the history behind it. 🏛️

For Episode 6 of our Hidden Gems of Berlin series, Mike takes us beneath the surface of the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church (Gedächtniskirche).

Long before it became a powerful monument of remembrance, it was an incredibly grand 19th-century cathedral. Following the 1943 bombings, locals affectionately nicknamed the ruined spire der hohle Zahn (“the hollow tooth”) because of its distinct silhouette against the skyline.

This is just the first chapter of Mike’s look into the site. In Part 2 next week, he explores how the church looks today— including the striking postwar architecture made of over 20,000 blocks of blue glass, the unique figures who contributed to its rebirth, and the deeper stories behind its design.

We look forward to sharing the rest of the history with you. Have you ever visited the Memorial Church in person? Let us know in the comments. 👇

A landmark shaped by Cold War history, architecture, art, and reinvention, all in one place. ✨

Insider Berlin Tip #4 🇩🇪 Just off Alexanderplatz, there’s a 1960s building most people walk past — but it holds one of the largest artworks in Europe.

Built for the Ministry of Education in former East Germany, it wasn’t just architecture - it was a statement of ideology, culture, and everyday life.

In this week’s episode, Mike takes you through the story behind it - and the artist who brought it to life.

Stay till the end to find out who these legends are 👀
…and how socialism helped shape a whole country.

Berlin doesn’t always explain itself. Sometimes you just have to stop and look properly. 👀

This week, Mike takes us inside one of Karl-Marx-Allee’s most iconic stops — Café Moskau. 🏛️

Built to represent the friendship between the GDR and the Soviet Union, it’s one of those buildings that gets more interesting the closer you look. The mosaic running along the side? Farmers, workers, a peaceful socialist future — all captured in tile on the wall of what is now, quietly, one of Berlin’s most iconic landmarks.
