Tempelhof Airport and THF Tower

Flughafen Tempelhof

MonumentLocals' pick

Ernst Sagebiel's airport, planned in 1936 and Europe's largest listed architectural monument, a symbol of both Nazi oppression and the 1948/49 Airlift, when US soldiers played basketball upstairs. Two-hour guided tours show the hidden parts; the old control tower has an exhibition and a roof terrace over Tempelhofer Feld.
