Subimos a la torre. Sacamos con tiempo las entradas y gratuitas. Bien ordenado. Se hace una revisión importante para pasar. Luego es solo la cúpula. Muy linda.

Este edificio es una joya histórica, artística y arquitectónica. Hice un tour y nos mostraron los sitios donde se llevan adelante los debates parlamentarios, la cúpula (que es maravillosa) y el museo donde se ven las inscripciones en ruso de los soldados que llegaron en la Segunda Guerra Mundial para liberar a Berlín de los nazis. También tiene un lugar donde figuran los nombres de todos los hombres y mujeres que alguna vez fueron legisladores y está el del innombrable y también algunos de sus secuaces. Nos explicaron que no los sacaron para que se tome conciencia que fueron electos democráticamente y que el terror y el horror también puede ser democrático. Me pareció correcto.
