Bei einem Rundgang durch die Leipziger Innenstadt darf ein Besuch des Goethedenkmals nicht fehlen.
The iconic east side gallery is home to some very well known street art. A large open air gallery that once was the berlin wall. Is 1316 metres long and it accommodates art from 118 artists from 21 countries. It officially opened as an open air gallery on 28 September 1990. Just over a year later, it was given protected memorial status.

The paintings are really beautiful and the wall is quite long. Be careful about the weather 😅 I think you should ideally visit this place in summer so you don’t freeze as I did
Went on a wet Monday evening as part of our 24 hours in Berlin. It was well lit so we didn’t miss out by visiting in the evening. Easily accessible by train.
Historic place, one of the last pieces of the Wall of Berlin that is still in the original location. Amazing artworks from various graffiti artists.
The best part, it's open air and free to visit. Just try to arrive a bit early so that you don't have to wait in order to take pictures
Such a pity that they allowed property development literally on top of this monument. But I guess money makes the world go around and Berlin officials are obviously notorious money grabbers.
Das Goethedenkmal steht in einen kleinen Park, unweit der Promenade in Marienbad. Es gibt dort Bänke, wo man sich ausruhen kann und das Denkmal betrachten kann. Es ist eine Sehenswürdigkeit in Marienbad und man sollte auf alle Fälle mal vorbeischauen.
Visiting the East Side Gallery was an unforgettable experience. The vibrant and thought-provoking murals displayed on remnants of the Berlin Wall were not only artistically impressive but also deeply moving. Walking along this historic landmark was a powerful reminder of the resilience and spirit of unity. A must-see for anyone interested in art, history, and the human spirit.

It’s part of the history that worth visiting while you’re at Berlin. This place is less exciting compared to to lots of other museums that you find here. But if you had extra time, definitely go for it.
There are some free street parking available, if not you can on the other side of the bridge.

You can't miss this point of Berlin. It's very cool to see parts of what once was the Berlin eat and now see all the graffiti and beautiful views from the river. The wall museum, on the start of the strip, is all very cool and gives us a very good scope of the history of the wall. If you're visiting the museum, allow at east 2 hours for it if ou like reading all the things.

Public space named for 1814 anti-Napoleon occupation of Paris & fully restored after reunification. It can be crowded to get very clear photos, even late at night on a summer day,but there's always a place for more people. A nice piece of history for all to enjoy.

A good restaurant near the monument that offers a very nice view of the statue itself. A very good and varied selection of food and drinks.

First place we visited following our arrival in Berlin. Roadside artwork is amazing and the otherside of the wall is for art students and the graffiti fraternity to express themselves. Probably the other undecorated parts of the wall found elsewhere in Berlin are more thought provoking though?
Perfect place for beer lovers. Food is great match with beer and also there are some traditional dishes. Beer is fresh and tastes soo good. Service is friendly and fast. There is version of menu in English for foreigners. Deserts are not my cup of tea, I would recommend another beer instead 😊 Garden is really nice so if you can chose, visit when weather is nice.

Potsdamer Platz is definitely one of the must see places when visiting Berlin. Go to the city view places on top of the hotel across from the DB building. Fastet elevator in Europe 0-25th floor in a few seconds.

Modern business architecture. Wd not put it on the first spots of my Berlin bucket list. But hey - it’s impressive - a newly built quarter in the heart of a city - u don’t find everywhere!
The East Side Gallery in Berlin is like a time-traveling street art history lesson. This stretch of the Berlin Wall is covered in awesome graffiti that tells a powerful story of unity beating division. Seriously, every mural is like a punch in the feels. It's emotional, man! When you go, just know it can get crazy busy, so maybe hit it up when the crowds aren't as nuts for a more chill vibe.

The wall stretches a lot longer than we thought. We took time to enjoy every single graffiti so it took more than one hour to go from the other side to the other end. Lots of interesting graffitis, a lot of which imply the Cold War and historical events. Recommend to go there on a sunny day.

An amazing outside gallery surrounded by such great history. Love the East Side Gallery because there is just so much to see all for free. It’s particularly great to see so much beautiful artwork on something that used to represent something so horrific. This is something great for people of all ages to go and see, however, bare in mind, it can get very busy at times and you may not be able to see certain artwork unless you wait for a while.

Truly great place to visit. The art work on the Berlin Wall is amazing. This is a real piece of history and you can only just imagine what it was like before the wall was torn down. If you go to Berlin this is an absolute must to visit. Plus there is a nice cafe right next to it. Martha's Cafe. If it hadn't started pouring rain I would have stayed longer but I will definitely be revisiting on my next trip.
Beautiful scenery with magnificent buildings,Potsdam HobanHof has a significant history on display for tourists to read and take pictures. Connections of roads to many cities so its an intersection.

The wall has a great history in itself which anyone visiting there would be keen to know and the art done on the wall is amazing. It is so beautiful. It feels like just grab a drink and take a good amount of walk along the wall. It was a great adventure for me to see the beautiful graffiti.
The perfect place to immerse yourself in the authenticity of the Berlin Wall.
.
We stayed at the hotel right next to the wall and found the park and wall remains amazing.
.
Here you can really begin to imagine the divide between the east and west side and picture the true scale of the wall along the main street.
.
The street art now dominates the remains and this in itself is a real treat to absorb.
.
100% this is the place to visit to experience the 'wall'

A top place to visit in Berlin.

It's only part of Berlin where you have Berlin Wall present. You can read about bit of History of it there but the best things are the painting and the art on that wall. It's a long stretch of wall with a lot of different paintings present on the wall. If you go behind the walls and if you have seen some previous documentary on Berlin Wall then you can surely feel everything that would have seen. Where were the mines, the river crossing challenge etc.

Popular Touristic Square in front of the Brandenburger Tor in Berlin. Pretty busy, best is to get here early before all the tourists arrive.

This area has a lot of history and is also a very beautiful area. At night you can see how glorious the monument looks. Nearby there are a couple of parks you can visit. Also near the Brandenburger Tor you can find lots of small places to dine in.

In the afternoon or early night you will find musicians here, they will cheer up the atmosphere with nice notes. Make sure you pass by this place if you are in Berlin, you won't regret it.

Important place to visit. Full of history, diversity, shopping, dining.
Seeing the segments of the Berlin wall right where they were back then gave you a whole in the stomach just to picture the dark times the city had gone through. There's pictures of the before and after of many segments of the wall. Feeling sadness and hope at the same time.

Busy touristy plaza to admire the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Sure it hosts many events through the seasons. Find the history board that explains how the area was destroyed during the war.

Schöner Platz. Gerade gelernt dieser Goethe ist eigentlich ein Sportlehrer aus Leipzig der fuer das Denkmal Modell gestanden hat. Der echte Goethe ist angeblich ein kleiner schmächtiger Dude.

Another historical place in Berlin. It used to be one of the busiest plazas in Europe. Later, it was destroyed during WWII and then completely abandoned during Cold War as Berlin Wall crossed it.

An important square which hosts Brandenburg Gate and is surrounded by some embassies. Tiergarten is nearby and easily accessible through Brandenburg Gate.
very lively place. Close to many attractions where only take about 5-10 minutes walking. Giant parks nearby, with a lovely environment, the best place to relax or ride a bike around. Going straight through the park you can then also visit the tower. The streets have many stores as well. Another must visit in Berlin.
Sehr schönes Denkmal das „Goethedenkmal“ mitten in Leipzig gelegen direkt hinter dem Alten Rathaus Leipzigs. Das Denkmal liegt sehr schön und kann von allen Seiten gut besichtigt werden. Es ist eine tolle Anlaufstelle auch für Stadtführung mitten in Leipzig. Es lohnt sich dort vorbeizuschauen.

Really lovely place filled with pubs.

Great place to walk around, the area is amazing.
If you want to take a picture without many people try to go in the early morning.
Gets really crowded in the afternoon, but is so beautiful to see people from all over the world speaking different languages.
Nice food and good staff . A bit expensive for a burger.

Ausgangspunkt für eine wunderschöne 2h Rundwanderung um Tandern: Der "Beste-Gegend-Pfad". Unbedingt den längeren Weg (vs. 8km) incl. Biotop nehmen! Schloß selbst ist in Privatbesitz.

Cool artwork and a nice spot to meet up with friends with several good restaurant and bar options around.

Parking is tricky during lunch and on the weekends, but can still get here by bike or public transport.

Beware of vomit on the weekends. Sometimes people just let it out right outside the bars…

A place to sit and people watch in the heart of Stuttgart city centre, so really accessible. A fee different coffee spots and breakfast options I’m the area. In summer this area is packed during the evenings. Really festive and fun on a hot summer’s night. Worth a stop.

Gemäß den Anweisungen seines Vaters begann Goethe im Herbst 1765 ein Jurastudium an der Universität Leipzig, und im Gegensatz zur traditionellen Stadt Frankfurt, die keine Universität hatte, war Leipzig damals eine elegante und offene Stadt namens Klein-Paris. Dort wurde Goethe wie ein Landsmann behandelt und musste sich zunächst an die dort herrschenden Gebräuche und Gebräuche anpassen, und sein Vater gewährte ihm ein monatliches Stipendium von 100 Gulden, doppelt so viel wie ein Student an den damals teuersten Universitäten brauchte. Doch schon bald vernachlässigte Goethe das Pflichtstudium und besuchte lieber Lyrikvorlesungen und setzte den Zeichenunterricht fort. Im Juli 1768 erlitt Goethe infolge einer Tuberkulose schwere innere Blutungen und kehrte ohne akademischen Abschluss in sein Frankfurter Elternhaus zurück, was die Hoffnungen seines Vaters enttäuschte.

Romantische Atmosphäre,
Es war ein gelungener Abend. Dankeschön
Great place for a unique hamburger. The decor inside is like you are in a forest with trees growing all around. Spacious, friendly staff and a nice selection of food.
Delicious burgers and coctails! The decoration is fantastic! Don't forget to make reservation, after 17.00 it's very difficult to find a table!
