Alt-Berlin (“Old Berlin”) is the name of many a local Berlin bar. But what many people don’t know is that there really is an Old Berlin. And it’s not a bar, but a once long-forgotten part of town. For many years, Alt-Berlin was the city’s historical center – until it was destroyed in the War. After that people had little interest in the area: Berlin was reinventing itself. And as so often happens, traces of the past were quickly erased.
