Free ticket to Berlin’s Jewish Museum: Libeskind’s symbolic building, Holocaust Tower, and exhibits on Jewish life from medieval times to today.

Hitler destroyed the vibrant Jewish community and decimated those remaining in Berlin. Total horror for everyone and Berlin’s unforgettable loss. The admission is free. I visited with a friend who had been in Hamburg as a 6 year old and we both were profoundly moved by our two hour visit to this essential museum.”
