Title: Black Hole Information Loss - What's the Problem?

Black holes fascinate not only astronomers but also theoretical physicists. In this talk I will explain what makes black holes so interesting for the theorist. I discuss both the black hole information loss problem and the, more recently discovered, black hole firewall problem.
