Spent the morning in the North West of the city at the Schloss Charlottenburg, one of the many Royal Palaces in the country. Some marvellous rooms, although most have been rebuilt after heavy bombing the the Second World War. The restoration is pretty fantastic though and its set in some picturesque gardens.

Came back into the modern era when I visited the Story of Berlin museum complete with Nuclear Bunker all ready to go, although they need 2 weeks notice of any nuclear attack in order to fill the water tanks, so lets hope any warning doesn't get lost in the post.

Walked back to the centre of town and found a stretch of the Berlin Wall which is still in position. It's right next to a levelled piece of land which was part of no-mans land during the cold war. Before that it was Gestapo Headquarters and it was from here that much of the terror that enveloped Europe originated in the 30's and 40's. There is a museum now, detailing that horrific time the world history and making sure it is never forgotten.
