    Monument to the Anonymous Pedestrians

    Walk to the Monument to the Anonymous Pedestrians. The viewing spot is aligned so that at sunrise on 15 January, the sun sets toward the WSW, casting a warm glow on the figures emerging from the underground. Stand on the side where the figures appear to be coming up, facing the light.

    Café Berg

    Head to Café Berg for a proper sit-down breakfast or coffee. It is open from 07:30 on weekdays, making it the perfect spot to warm up and reflect on the morning light.
