What to expect
The Neue Wache is a historic building in Berlin, Germany, that serves as a memorial to the victims of war and tyranny. It was built from 1816 to 1818 as a guardhouse for the Royal Palace and features a Greek Revival architectural style. The building has a plain design with four massive corner risalits and a portico of Doric columns. It is considered a major work of Prussian Neoclassical architecture and holds Germany's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The site has also been the Central Memorial of the Federal Republic of Germany to the Victims of War and Tyranny since 1993. Visitors can observe the changing of the guard ceremony, which is a notable tradition at the Neue Wache
