Matthew on TV: Berlin after the wall

'Dienstag, d

CNN recently asked Matthew Griffin, one of the architects and owners of Minilofts (along with his wife, Britta Jürgens), to share his local architecture expertise.

Christmas Markets

'Montag, d

We're already excited for Christmas in Berlin! Only one week left until most of the Christmas Markets open for the holiday season, bringing light and warmth to the dark Berlin winter days.

Boros Collection

'Dienstag, d

There's a massive WWII bunker a few blocks away from the Miinlofts. Known in East German times as the 'Banana Bunker' (its cool temperature made it perfect storage for fruit), wild fetish parties rocked the concrete walls in the 1990s, until it was bought by Christian Boros in 2003 to house his highly impressive collection of modern art.

Henne

'Donnerstag, d

At Henne, a Berlin institution, chicken-loving West Berliners used to lick their fingers with a distinctive view - the Berlin Wall stood right smack in front of the entrance. The menu is simple and to the point: a half chicken (€7,50), fried to perfection in a buttermilk batter, served with country bread, and sides of potato or slaw (€3,50).

Berlin Marathon

'Freitag, d

It's a glorious weekend for the Berlin Marathon, folks, the sun is shining in a bright blue sky, and the weather for Sunday should be around 25 degrees... OK, it'll be perfect conditions for the spectators, the runners would perhaps prefer a some cloud cover and chill.

Opera!

'Dienstag, d

The days are rapidly shortening and the dark winter is imminent, but there's reason for cheer as Berlin's opera houses open their gilded doors after the summer break. Berlin, a relatively tiny city with 3 million inhabitants, has an embarassment of riches with three opera houses.

Tresor: fragments of a time still passing

'Dienstag, d

Tresor club is legendary. First opened in 1991, it was the city's first and best techno club. Forced out of its Potsdamer Platz location in 2005, it reopened two years later in a giant former power plant.

TV Tower

'Montag, d

The retro Berlin TV Tower at Alexanderplatz (or Fernsehturm), the 368 m (1,207 ft) tall status symbol of East Berlin, turns the ripe old age of 40 this October.
