Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
he most popular City West attraction is without doubt the well-run
Berlin
Zoo and Aquarium
, but the most eye-catching is the huge
Kaiser-Wilhelm-
Gedächtniskirche
, an iconic semi-ruined church tower that is one of the
neighbourhood's very few remaining prewar buildings.
An easy walk from both are a smattering of good
museums
worth going out of your
way for: particularly those devoted to fashion photographer Helmut Newton; anti-war
artist Käthe Kollwitz, and a lively multimedia museum on Berlin's history. he
Schöneberg
neighbourhood, in contrast, has few real sights; though its city hall
witnessed John F. Kennedy's famous “Ich bin ein Berliner” speech.

ARRIVAL AND GETTING AROUND
By train
Bahnhof Zoo is the main transport hub in this
part of Berlin, from where buses radiate to all the sights in
the west.
Getting around
City West is fairly easily explored on foot,
as is much of Schöneberg, where most points of interest are
an easy walk from Nollendorfplatz. However, Rathaus
Schöneberg is best reached by U-Bahn or bus #M46 from
Bahnhof Zoo.
