    The Berlin TV Tower is THE symbol of Berlin and with its 368 m height also the highest publicly accessible building in Germany. The breathtaking observation deck at a height of 203 m provides a free and spectacular view over Berlin in all directions - behind a glass paneling as well as an immediate outdoor experience - on fine days even up to 40 km.

    If you look closely, you can see a cross-shaped reflection of the sun on the ball, which is popularly called - alluding to the costly attempts of the atheist GDR to suppress this blasphemy - the "revenge of the pope".

    In addition to the observation deck, you can enjoy the breathtaking view over Berlin in the Panoramabar or in the revolving Sphere - which turns in an hour once on its own axis - with drinks and food.

      From 203/207 meters height you can see here Berlin. If you do not want to queue too long, until you finally get the 6m / s fast lift up, you should buy the Fast-View ticket *. This usually makes you up much faster.
      Highly recommended!

      * To buy on the internet.

        Berlin TV tower
        At 368 meters, the Berlin TV Tower is the tallest structure in Germany and the fourth highest TV tower in Europe. The television tower is located in the park at the television tower in the Mitte district of Berlin. When it was completed in 1969, it was the second tallest television tower in the world and, with over a million visitors every year, is one of the ten most popular sights in Germany.
        The television tower in the international style was built between 1965 and 1969 by the GDR's Deutsche Post in the park at the television tower in place of the demolished Marienviertel. The opening took place on October 3, 1969. The structure is over 220 meters higher than the old Berlin radio tower from the 1920s in the western part of the city. As a landmark and a landmark that can be seen from afar, it shapes the city's skyline. In opening scenes of films related to Berlin, the capital is often symbolized by the television tower alongside buildings such as the Brandenburg Gate, the Victory Column and the Reichstag building.
        The building, known internally as “Telecommunications Tower 32”, serves, in addition to its main function as the location of several radio and television stations, as an observation tower with a viewing floor including a bar at a height of 203 meters and includes a revolving restaurant. In addition, the Berlin television tower serves as an event location. The striking and city-defining building underwent a strong symbolic transformation. After German reunification, it developed from a politically appropriated national symbol of the GDR into a city-wide symbol in the reunified Berlin. Due to its universal and timeless design language, it has increasingly been used as a trademark and is internationally identified with Berlin and Germany. The Berlin TV Tower received monument status in the GDR in 1979, which was continued after German reunification.
