Victory Column

It was a great view. I heard before the price was 2€, now it’s 4,5€. Even though I’m quite sportive, after ascending all those stairs my calves were sore so much it was noticeable walking the next day. There’s also a museum before the stairs. We went only because our friend was visiting Berlin, but it’s not a must

The tall column with a statue on top, located at the entrance to Tiergarten, looks truly impressive. The surrounding area is also close to many central attractions, and the peaceful park right next to it is ideal for a relaxing walk.

Great place to visit with an amazing view! The Berlin Victory Column is definitely worth visiting, especially for the panoramic view from the top — it’s absolutely incredible! Just be prepared for the climb. The stairs are narrow, steep, and spiral-shaped, and there can be quite a lot of people going up and down. At times, you feel like you have to keep moving so you don’t cause a traffic jam 😄. Luckily, there are a few small chairs along the way where you can stop and catch your breath for a few seconds. It can be a bit intense, but once you reach the top, the view makes it completely worth it. Definitely recommend it if you’re visiting Berlin!

The climb to the top is just under 300 narrow steps but absolutely worth it. The views over Berlin are stunning, and visiting in autumn made it even better with all the seasonal colours on display. There’s also a small exhibition on the ground floor that gives helpful context and history about the monument which adds more meaning to what you’re about to see. A couple of practical things: it’s cash only and you access it via an underground tunnel (even though you can see it right in the middle of the roundabout). Overall, a great mix of a bit of a workout, history and rewarding views at the top. Definitely worth the climb if you’re up for it.

Space at the top is limited so get there at 09.30, rush to the top and hope for clear weather for your unobstructed views. The spiral staircase is just about wide enough for passing when descending and there are seats on each landing. The real problem is that Berlin is a flat city and there are no significant buildings close by so the views are not impressive. The exhibition on the ground floor explains that the column used to be next to the Reichstag but was moved for road widening. That's a pity because I am sure the view from there would be much better.
