Timeline
10:30
Step inside the Stadtschloss – Humboldt Forum right when it opens. Being one of the first visitors allows you to appreciate the grand baroque halls and the mix of old and new architecture without the midday rush.
11:00
Walk 15 minutes to Lutter & Wegner for a leisurely lunch. This historic German restaurant has been serving Berlin cuisine since 1811. Order a dish to pair with their own sparkling or wine selection to soak in the traditional atmosphere.
12:00
End your afternoon with a browse at Kulturkaufhaus Dussmann, a 15-minute walk away. As one of the largest book and music shops in Berlin, it is a perfect place to find a souvenir or lose yourself in the English bookshop section.
