Under the Lime Trees

Boulevard of treasures

Schlossplatz
Brandenburger Tor
Berlin, Berlin 10117
+49 (0)30 25 0025 (Touristen Information)

Berlin's grandest boulevard stretches east-west for just over a mile between Schlossplatz and the Brandenburg Gate. Originally conceived as a simple riding path between Berliner Schloss palace and the royal hunting ground in Tiergarten, Unter den Linden was transformed into a splendid regal boulevard by the 18th century Prussian kings. Named after the lime trees which line its central aisle, the road contains many of Berlin's landmark buildings like the Brandenburg Gate, Zeughaus, Kronprinzenpalast, State Opera House and Humboldt University.
