How to Spend your Weekend (February 15 – 17)

Nothing planned for the weekend? How about a visit to one of Berlin's beautiful museums, an inspiring guided tour through a new exhibition or a special event? We would like to inspire you with our weekly recommendations for the upcoming weekend – no matter whether you live in Berlin or you´re spending your weekend in town!

Underground Architecture
Exhibition

A Berlin subway ride takes you on a time-travelling journey, as the history of the Berlin transport systems is inextricably linked to that of the divided city. Initially threatened by modern reconstruction, many underground stations are now listed as historical monuments. With 60 selected exhibits, the Berlinische Galerie's exhibition Underground Architecture is dedicated to post-war buildings, from the cheerfully designed stations of the 1960s and 70s to the post-modern architecture of the 1980s. Sat & Sun, 10 am – 6 pm, admission 10 / 7 €
