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.

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.
