　　When it opened in 1875, the Kaiserhof hotel was the epitome of

modernity. The opulent hotel was one of Berlin's most fashionable

resorts, the haunt of aristocrats and rich holidaymakers. In 1930,

Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels used the Kaiserhof as the Nazi

Party headquarters. In 1946, the hotel, like much of bombed-out

Berlin, was a hollow ruin. In 1975, on the spot where the grand

hotel once stood, the North Korean embassy was erected, an

architectural eyesore of appalling vulgarity. Berlin charts

dramatically the changing face of one of the twentieth century's

most fascinating cities at three crucial periods of its

history.

Berlin presents the buildings and structures of historical

and architectural interest which have been affected by events of

the twentieth century: government buildings and grand hotels, cafes

and department stores, theaters and railway stations can be seen

from the same angle at three different points in time. Some of the

structures have vanished completely; some were restored after the

allied bombing of the city during the Second World War; others,

such as the Imperial Palace and Hitler's Reich Chancellery, were

blown up on ideological grounds; still others today serve a purpose

different from their original one: the Nazi Reichsbank is now the

home of the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, while the building

which once housed the Reich Air Ministry is now the home of the

Federal Ministry of Finances. The photographs assembled here are at

once spectacular and full of human life, and the city they record

over the course of almost one hundred years is a unique document

for the student of history and architecture alike. Above all,

Berlin is cultural and contemporary history in one-a

splendid, informative, and enigmatic book about one the great

cities of our time.
