The first Nazi book burning took place here in 1933.
Thousands of concrete pillars of different heights form the Holocaust Memorial. Many were taller than me.
This site, now a parking lot, has filled in Hitler’s underground bunker from World War II. He committed suicide there.
I saw several pieces of the Berlin Wall and visited a museum to learn more about it.
Checkpoint Charlie was the main crossing for Allies between the two Berlins.
This sign was posted at the checkpoint.

Here’s a historical photo of the site, if you can make it out.
It wouldn't enlarge for me, actually. Strange.
What were the concrete pillars for? What did they symbolize? It looks interesting! :)
Sorry, not sure why they won't enlarge.
Wikipedia says: "the stelae are designed to produce an uneasy, confusing atmosphere, and the whole sculpture aims to represent a supposedly ordered system that has lost touch with human reason"...
