After Schloss Charlottenburg in Berlin

 

 

One of the bridges. The current fad of putting a lock on public places particularly bridges started in Italy. Usually the cities cut them off.

 

 

 The Bode Museum is one of the groups of museums on the Museum Island in Berlin, Germany; it is a historically preserved building. The museum was designed by architect Ernst von Ihne and completed in 1904.
 

The Hackescher Markt ("Hacke's Market", named after Townmajor Hans Christoph Friedrich Graf von Hacke). Originally a marsh north of the city fortifications on the road to Spandau, King Frederick II of Prussia about 1750 had a market square laid out under the surveillance of Hacke in the course of the northern town expansion. Now it is a thriving area of commerce for artists, etc.
