Before it gets demolished later this year, an old bank building on Nürnberger Strasse got a street art makeover by no less than 165 artists from Berlin and further afield, each given complete freedom to style one of the 108 rooms. The result is amazing and very popular - on opening day the queue stretched around the block, so it's best to aim for a weekday visit. Bring all your senses along to soak up the experience – photography is not permitted, cameras not allowed (safe storage is provided). Two-hour guided tours (€10) in English can be booked via the website and allow you to skip the line.
April-June 2017, Nürnberger Strasse 68, U Wittenbergplatz / S Zoologischer Garten, www.thehaus.de. Open Tues-Sun 10:00-20:00. Admission free, donations appreciated.
