Always ...

can you find attractive offers in this quarter at Berlin's good core. But of course, the year also offers some special highlights.

Easter/Spring

In time for the Easter holidays 2010, the founding place of Berlin celebrated the reopening of its Nikolaikirche. The Nikolai quarter, which has the shortest road of the town, the Eiergasse, and, at the same time, the longest tradition of Berlin egg (Eier) trade, celebrates this event annually with a cultural and crafts programme called "Spring in the Nikolai Quarter“. 

The Historiale-Markt ...

has become a continuous and large-scale story of success. Each summer (and always on the last weekend in August), the Nikolai quarter offers colourful and vivid time-travel opportunities for families with and without children. They offer a hands-on experience for anyone. The alleys and market lines were already populated by Napoleon's soldiers, Prussian reformers, March Revolutionaries and Emperor Wilhelm II, as well as Heinrich Zille and his „Milljöh“ and the 1920´s in Berlin. Many restaurants offered dishes typical for the time.

The topic of the Historiale 2011 is the postwar period in Berlin – an exciting time and an event that everyone should visit!

The Märchenmarkt

November also brings some unusual beings to the quarter: Fairies, dwarves, giants and innumerable fairy-tale enthusiasts of all ages mingle in the streets. These are the fairy tale days, which include the Nikolai quarter Märchenmarkt (fairy tale market), the largest fairy tale festival in the world.

ZiLLE MUSEUM

ZiLLE MUSEUM presents new exhibits in the scope of a redesigned exhibition.

Long Museum Night
