Denkzeichen Modezentrum Hausvogteiplatz

Haven't found out yet what the piece is called and who made it. It is definitely related to the Jewish community and the Holocaust. Will do some research on it.

Okay- found some info.

During the 1920s when Berlin led the world in fashion and design Hausvogteiplatz (the place where the mirrors are) was an internationally renowned centre of haute couture. As much of the fashion business was run by Jews, this was soon put an end to by the Nazis after they seized power in 1933.
The memorial consists of three plaques explaining the history of the place and three mirrors, each 2,70 meters tall, to honour the 4000 Jews that used to work there and have either been forced to leave or deported to concentration camps.

Sun Voyager, Iceland

Made of metal, this modernised version of the ships Vikings used to conquer a big part of the northern hemisphere back then is a sight worth not missing. The statue, named Sun Voyager, is made by artist Jon Gunnar Arnason.
