The Adlon, Berlin

We’re standing on Pariser Platz, beneath the shadow of the Brandenburg Gate, where Berlin has staged some of the twentieth century’s most dramatic scenes. In this episode, we'll explore how the Adlon became the city’s living room: an imperial showpiece, Weimar salon, wartime witness and Cold War casualty, before being rebuilt as a symbol of reunification, power and private drama in full public view.
