Visit the Spy Station at Teufelsberg
© Abandoned Berlin
Everyone knows about Teufelsberg too – but no Abandoned Berlin list is complete without it so here it is. The old Western spy station built on rubble piled together over a Nazi collage after World War II has fared badly since the Cold War melted into insignificance, and its fate hangs in the balance as the city and its owners squabble over an acceptable outcome. It's not quite the Cold War but relations have turned frosty and no one knows how they'll turn out. For now though, the owner's son has taken over, and he lets people have a browse around to admire some magnificent street art for €7. There was a time it was truly abandoned and you could just wander in but those days appear to be from another era – just like Teufelsberg itself.
