The Berlin city is famous for the extremely romantically Schloss Charlottenburg and the city castle, which will be actually rebuilt by the German concret mob, but at other place they have also very nice and most awsome castels and parks, which locate so far from the tourists routes, that you, the cultural overestimated and well educated single traveller, will have the exhibition in this fine place just for your own pleasure. If you like you can have a small talk with all the watchmen and -women overthere and make them so happy, because you're the only who talked to them for months ... or years? Anyway the building of Schloss Köpenick had a great architecture history, but more interesting are the inside installations of mediaeval rooms from other german castel, they bought and reinstalled overthere. These installations are really wonderful and very impressive. They have a good guide tour by walky talky and you can spend a complete tea time inside.

Spatially well cut. Due to the spacious room design for the individual art objects, they come to the fore in an excellent way! As a visitor you have a lot of space, even with a pram you can easily get through. It's also handicapped accessible and the staff is incredibly patient and helpful! 👌 Sure, you can run through it quickly or you can stroll slowly through the museum and linger at certain objects and look a them from different perspectives and enjoy them relish!
