Ex-U.S. president Barack Obama to visit Berlin on DFB Pokal final weekend

This is a modal window.

Borussia Dortmund manager Thomas Tuchel feels they can win the DFB Pokal after beating Bayern Munich 3-2.

Berlin is prepared for a busy DFB Pokal cup final weekend with former U.S. president Barack Obama making one of his first public appearances since leaving office earlier this year at the German Protestant Church Congress.

The DFB Pokal final between Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt is scheduled for May 27 at Berlin's Olympiastadion, with the German Protestant Church Congress and a bank holiday weekend already taking place in the German capital.

Two days before the final on Thursday May 25, Obama will make one of his first public appearances at the Brandenburg Gate.
