Berlin Treptower Park

★ 4.6 (26,263)Free

Treptower Park stretches along the Spree in southeast Berlin, its riverside lawns and paths a popular spot for a Sunday walk, but its centerpiece is the vast Soviet War Memorial, a solemn and monumental complex commemorating Red Army soldiers who died taking Berlin in 1945. The scale and symbolism of the memorial leave a strong impression even on visitors unfamiliar with its history, and it anchors the park's perfect culture score. A 4.6 rating and near-100 must-see score make it one of the most essential green spaces in the city, historically as much as scenically.

What people say

"Spent my Sunday at Treptower Park, and I’m really glad I did. It’s one of those places where you don’t feel the need to do much, just walk around, sit by the water, and enjoy the peaceful vibe. A quiet corner of Berlin that lets you slow down for a while. Definitely a place I’d come back to."
