Does anyone know where Alexander Von Humboldt died?
I need to know where he died… Like in England or New york city or somewhere else.

He died in Berlin.
"On February 24, 1857 Humboldt suffered a minor stroke, which passed without perceptible symptoms. It was not until the winter of 1858-1859 that his strength began to decline, and that spring, on May 6, he died quietly in Berlin at the age of 89."
