    One of Berlin's most beautiful squares. A Ritter Sport Bunte Schokowelt is right down the street. Make your own chocolate flavor & it's ready for you in 30 minutes. Enjoy your creation in this square.

    It was very near our hotel so we enjoyed our time at the numerous cafes. You can hear the fiddlers perform as you sit and relax at the cafes. The konzerthaus and the French Dome are nearby

    Enjoy Berlin's Classic Open Air Concert series on the beautiful Gendarmenmarkt in July. If you can't get tickets bring a lawn chair and commune with hundreds lounging in the streets around the venue. Read more

    This square, created in the 17th century, is named after the stables of the cuirassier regiment "Gens d'Armes". In the summertime you can listen to classical music in the middle of the square.

    Square with the Konzerthaus and the French and German Cathedrals. The centre is crowned by a statue of Germany's poet Friedrich Schiller. You can take a drink in one of the terraces in the square.

    Impressive square where two imposingly domed buildings called the Französischer Dom and the Deutscher Dom frame the rightly admired Konzerthaus.

    It is Berlin’s most graceful square. The twin churches of Deutscher Dom and Französischer Dom frame Schinkel’s Konzerthaus to form a superbly har-monious architectural trio.

    Magnificent dome in the heart of the Mitte. There was a Christmas market nearby although they wanted admission fee to enter that was weird to me.

    Nice place of old architecture (late 1600). Doesn’t even look like most of it was destroyed during WWII, everything was restored.
