Germany Berlin Skyline from Fischerinsel Skyscraper
This rooftop offers one of the best views over the capital Berlin with the Spree in the foreground and the famous Television Tower of Berlin in the Background. It's also one of the best spots to photograph during thunderstorms, because the Television Tower is a lightning arrester.
Photography Tips
The balcony with this view is on every level of the building with 20th floor being the highest, but not necessarily the best one. If you are using a wide angle lens, which is definitely recommended, it's even better to get to the 16th floor, because it's important to take the photo as horizontal as possible to prevent the Television Tower from tilting. Another solution for this issue are of course tilt shift lenses.
Travel Information
The address for this spot is "Fischerinsel 1, 10179 Berlin". You can reach the balcony by going up with the elevator to one of the upper floors and looking for the stairs (emergency exit) there. The spot itself is not public and I wouldn't recommend to ring somewhere and disturb the people that are living there. The best way to get inside is just by following somebody else who is entering or leaving the building. Just make sure though to stay calm and don't misuse this great opportunity to get one of the best views over Berlin!
Parking is available right in front of the building and costs 1€ / hour.
