Happy Birthday, Old Fritz!

For Berlin 2012 is the year of important birthdays. It all starts on 24th January with the 300th anniversary of the birth of the Prussian King Frederick II, the occasion for the Friedrichjahr (Frederick Year) with numerous exhibitions, tours and festivals. The Long Night of Museums on 28th January is also dedicated to Old Fritz. Furthermore, there is another birthday for Berlin to look forward to: exactly 775 years ago the capital of Germany was first mentioned in an official document. Reason enough for plenty of events and street festivals. And finally in February there’s another birthday on the programme: the painter legend Gerhard Richter will celebrate his 80th birthday – with the Neue Nationalgalerie (New National Gallery) presenting a large-scale retrospective of his works.

Have fun in Berlin!
