Boulevard der Stars: Berlin's Walk of Fame
Stroll Berlin's Boulevard der Stars in Potsdamer Platz: a tribute to German film and TV legends, with golden stars and cinematic history.
Located in the heart of Berlin's Potsdamer Platz, the Boulevard der Stars pays tribute to German cinema and television luminaries. Opened in September 2010, it mirrors Hollywood's Walk of Fame, featuring a red 'carpet' embedded with brass stars. Each star commemorates actors, directors, and other personalities from German-speaking countries, bearing their name, profession, biographical data, and signature. Visitors can stroll along the boulevard, discovering stars of both past and present, including Marlene Dietrich, Armin Mueller-Stahl and Wim Wenders. A unique feature is the 'Star cameras,' which use Pepper's Ghost effect to project holographic images of the celebrities above their stars, offering a fun photo opportunity. The Boulevard is near other attractions like the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Philharmonic, and the Sony Center.
