Kurfürstendamm, often referred to as Ku'damm, is one of Berlin’s most iconic boulevards. Located in the western part of the city, it stands for luxury, shopping, culture and urban energy. With its wide sidewalks, elegant shops and vibrant atmosphere, it is a must-visit for anyone exploring Berlin.

Originally built as a hunting path for the Elector of Brandenburg in the 16th century, the street became a grand avenue in the 19th century. Today, it is home to high-end boutiques, global fashion chains, jewelers and famous department stores like KaDeWe, just around the corner on Tauentzienstraße.

Kurfürstendamm also offers cultural richness. The historic Theater des Westens, art galleries and cinemas line the boulevard. At its eastern end stands the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, a powerful symbol of wartime destruction and peace.

Along the street, numerous cafés and restaurants invite you to take a break. Whether for a coffee, a slice of cake or a fine dinner, Ku’damm caters to all tastes. It’s also a popular spot for people-watching and enjoying the lively street scene.

Public transportation is excellent, with U-Bahn, S-Bahn and bus stops nearby. Zoologischer Garten station is just a short walk away and connects you to many other parts of the city.

Architecturally, the boulevard is diverse. From classical façades to modern glass buildings, it reflects Berlin’s layered history.

Kurfürstendamm is more than a shopping street – it is a cultural artery of the city, where Berlin’s past and present flow together.
