Berlin is a cool place. Well, from what I remember anyway. I've been there one time in (at?) secondary school in 94 or 95. I distinctly remember all the building cranes and -sites. Apart from the usual museums and stuff our class visited the 'Sans souci' palace/castle thing from the Hohenzollern royal family, I really liked that trip.

Try to visit a former concentration camp. While not a very 'fun' trip it certainly is very engrossing and impressive. Konzentrationslager Sachsenhausen is very close to Berlin, about 20km IIRC.

Here's some info on Sachsenhausen.

I drink a beer with you
You haven't done anything wrong
Together against neonazis
Is what I had in mind

Oh btw, that particular incarnation of the lyrics in the link is rather crappy with regards to proper German spelling and grammar.
