PASTFINDER BERLIN 1945-89: Traces of German History - A Guidebook Overview
No other city in the world was marked by the Cold War like Berlin. Here at the Wall, the power blocs of the world confronted each other. Here, intelligence agencies of the East and West ran their spy centers. Here, each system attempted to present its own way of life as ideal. Only after the peaceful revolution of 1989 in the GDR was the divided city able to grow together again and to become the capital of a reunited Germany. Maik Kopleck's "PastFinder" takes you to the well-known and lesser known sites of this history. It gives a concise account of the historic events and introduces the most important personalities. Several maps and a clear graphic design let you put together your own sightseeing tour and provide quick orientation at each location.

Berlin has become one of the most transformed, rehabilitated and dynamic cities of the modern era.
Remnants of the old Berlin persist of course, and these sites are indicated on the STREETWISE® map of Berlin. Parts of the Berlin Wall stand as testimony to its dreary past; Museum Island exists with some of the most important museums in Europe. The infamous Brandenburger Tor stands proudly, ironically in front of the US Embassy. Then there's the bombed out Kaiser Wilhelm Gedachtniskirche. The addition of the new Holocaust Museum has become a reason to visit in itself.
The real Berlin is contemporary and stylish, its aesthetics driven more by artists, architects and chefs than by bureaucrats. If you are into contemporary architecture, walking Berlin will reward you because of the many new buildings and older modernist Bauhaus structures spread throughout the city.
The STREETWISE® Berlin Map enables you to experience all the excitement and sizzle Berlin, Germany has to offer. The avant garde capital of Europe these days is right here. Berlin in ’09 is what swinging London was in the 60’s. You won’t be disappointed.
The main map of Berlin covers the central city in detail and is indexed with important sites, hotels, architecture, metro stations and parks. An inset features Berlin’s metro system and fare structure.
