The Great Berlin Wheel was a giant Ferris wheel to be built near the Berlin Zoological Garden (Zoologischer Garten Berlin) in Berlin, Germany, by the Great Wheel Corporation.

It was originally planned to be Script error: No such module "convert". tall, with 36 passenger capsules,[1][2] but this was subsequently revised to Script error: No such module "convert". tall, with 28 passenger capsules, each able to accommodate 40 persons.[3]

The groundbreaking ceremony was on 3 December 2007[4] and completion was originally planned for 2008,[5] but the project stalled after encountering financial obstacles.[6]

If it had been built, it would have become the world's tallest Ferris wheel, superseding the Script error: No such module "convert". Singapore Flyer (world's tallest 2008–2014).
