The Humboldt University Library, which was raided by Hitler Youths during WWII for Berlin's first book burning
Humboldt University was home to many famed instructors and students, including Einstein and Karl Marx
At left, the inscription of an eerily accurate 1820 prediction made by a German philosopher, that those who burn books will eventually move on to burning people. At right, the Prince's palace, one of the only palaces still standing in the city
At left, the family cathedral of Berlin's royalty before WWI. At right, the Soviet version of a monument to the city (remember the U.S.-built House of Cultures of the World?)
