  Nicolai Quarter, Berlin
The Nikolaiviertel in Berlin's Mitte district has grown up within that area southwest of the Rotes Rathaus (Red Town Hall), which is bounded by Spandauer Strasse, Molkenmarkt (Whey Market), Mühlendamm, Spreeufer and Rathausstrasse.
It is the very core of old Berlin or, strictly speaking, of the eastern half of Cölln-Berlin, on the site of the oldest known settlement on a ford around the Nikolaikirche (St. Nicholas' Church).
The Nikolaiviertel presents a stark contrast to the open spaces on its northern side between the Palace of the Republic and the Television Tower.

The Nikolaiviertel not only lies in the very heart of Berlin, it is the place where it all began.
The first mention of Berlin in documents from 1251 referred to two settlements - Berlin and Cölln - situated opposite each other on the banks of the River Spree.
The baroque Knoblauchhaus and Ephraimpalais are classic examples of this sort of compromise - partly old and partly new.

 Nikolaiviertel - Wikipedia
Jahrhunderts die asymmetrische mittelalterliche Fassade mit dem einen, schlanken Turm, der erst in den 1870er Jahren durch einen neugotischen Doppelturm ersetzt wurde.
Während Berlin sich ringsherum ständig ausdehnte und neue städtische Zentren sich bildeten, veränderte sich das Nikolaiviertel kaum; hauptsächlich Handwerker wohnten und arbeiteten in den engen, winkligen Gassen.
Die engen Gassen folgen den überlieferten Grundrissen und sind nach alten Vorbildern gepflastert; zusammen mit der meist niedrig gehaltenen Bebauung vermitteln sie zwar nicht den Eindruck einer echten Altstadt, aber doch eine weithin akzeptierte Illusion davon.

It is located in the center of an area destroyed by bombs in the war which was then turned into a faux "old town" by the East German authorities called Nikolaiviertel.
The area is more a hodge-podge of relocated buildings than an authentic reproduction, and the newly-built 1988 apartments that attempt to "harmonize" with the older buildings are embarrassing.
The Nikolaikirche is the showplace of the Nikolaiviertel, which isn't saying much.

You can escape from the hubbub of city life by exploring the Nikolaiviertel, in what was once the old East Berlin.
This peaceful enclave takes you back to the historic heart of the city: A medieval village of cobblestone streets, picturesque lamps, Berlin’s oldest pub and a church from which in, 1539, news of the Reformation was spread to the inhabitants of the town.
Like much of Berlin, the Nikolaiviertel was badly damaged during the Second World War, but the reconstruction work has made it an oasis of calm in a city of otherwise frenetic activity.

 minerva's marble map
In the heart of Berlin, at the location from which the city originally grew, one can now visit a mixed huddle of buildings, some authentic but mostly either concrete-slab additions (in an endearing mock Hanseatic style) or structures moved from other parts of town, all laid out to suggest the area's original medieval street plan.
The Nikolaiviertel, as this open-air-museum-cum-theme-park is called, was created during the 1980s by the East Germans as a tourist attraction in a city that has otherwise divested itself of most traces of its medieval incarnation.
Although its focus is the Middle Ages, the Nikolaiviertel is also home to several pieces of 19th-century sculpture displaced by the bombing of World War II.

Nikolaiviertel, or the Nikolia Quarter, is a roughly rectangular network of small unspoilt streets and lanes bounded by the River Spree, Mfuhlendamm, Spandauer Strasse and Rathaus Strasse.

We really like the "Nikolaiviertel" - it has a lot of nice restaurants, including a big one right next to the river [sorry I can't remember the name] which brews its own beer.
And I do not care at all for the Nikolaiviertel, which is often praised as being historic, but which in fact only has been rebuilt (rather cheaply IMHO) during the days of the German Democratic Republic.
We had a lunch reservation for the restaurant at the top of the Reichstag so avoided the queue going up (you use the diabled entrance underneath the main entrance), but you still have to queue to queue for the lift back down.
