The two-bedroom, 55-square-meter flat is very Berlin- style. It is located in one of the most fashionable neighborhoods in the capital, Prenzlauerberg and is offered on the Airbnb page, which handles private accommodations all over the world. Do you want to know more details of the property?
No sign of the now chancellor
Although there is no trace of the now chancellor in the apartment, since it has been renovated to offer itself to tourists, it is still possible to feel like Merkel when she was studying Physical Sciences in the capital between 1986 and 1990. Thus, instead of the then coal boiler, the house has central heating.
Important moments in his life and in German history
The funny thing is that the current owner found out that Merkel lived there by chance thanks to the neighbors, who told her that her current husband, Joachim Sauer, spent nights and even weeks in the apartment , whom she had met as a married man with two sons. In addition, in this house the German Chancellor spent the historic night of November 9, 1989, that of the fall of the Wall, in which hundreds of thousands of East German citizens crossed to the other side, after broadcasting on television new rules to pass to the western sector.
