"This is a very clever idea and fairly inconspicuous unless you know to look for it. It's called the "Empty Library" and commemorates May 10, 1933, when the Nazis burned around 20,000 books. The underground room is viewed from above through a small glass plate. The shelves are all empty, but it has enough room to house 20,000 books.
It's not necessarily worth a special trip, but it's close enough to other landmarks that I recommend checking it out!
Price: Free
How long to plan: 5 minutes
How to get there: The memorial is a 3-minute walk from the Unter den Linden stop on the U5. If coming from Alexanderplatz, take the train in the direction of Berlin Hbf."
