Fun Facts About Berlin

Berlin has an extensive network of underground bunkers and tunnels. During World War II, these bunkers provided shelter for civilians during air raids. Today, some of these bunkers are open for tours, offering a glimpse into Berlin's wartime history.
Berlin has a unique tradition known as "Kreuzberg's floating Easter eggs." Every Easter, colorful, hand-painted eggs are released into the Landwehr Canal, floating downstream and delighting spectators.

Collection Reveal Details

We'll reveal collections for the Berlin City release on Friday, June 16th at 9 AM PT. As collections may alter a property's price, double-check your marketplace properties before the reveal to ensure you don’t sell them below the collection-modified value. It may be safer to temporarily remove them from the marketplace before the information is public and the Collections are revealed.

‍

Important Note: All collections to this city release will be tokenized before the release and will remain unmodified. As cities continue to expand, additional collections will be tokenized in this same process to meet the required collection ranges for each city’s tier. Not all collections tokenized are necessarily for the current city release.
