Parisian flair on Friedrichstraße

Friedrichstraße 76-78
Berlin, Berlin 10117

This branch of the famous Parisian department store helps add a touch of Mediterranean elegance to the somewhat austere German capital. Situated in Friedrichstadt-Passagen shopping center on Friedrichstraße, eastern Berlin's premier shopping street, the store offers the latest fashions from cult designers like Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Cardin. The design of the building, with its sunlit interior and eye-catching glass roof, is equally audacious. The only problem is that sheets of glass occasionally crash down onto the pavement below, creating havoc among passers-by and incurring the wrath of the local authorities. The food hall in the basement is not quite in the same league as KaDeWe's legendary food department, yet is still a great place to come and slurp down a couple of fresh oysters.
