Free Tour of Soviet Berlin - War Memorial Treptow
Overview of the tour in Berlin
do you want to know what nobody has told us, discover history from the Soviet perspective and understand the origins of the division of Berlin, Germany and Europe? This is the tour for you!
For the past 4 years I have been offering this tour to tourists passionate about art and history who are looking to get away from the more commercial tours.
We will learn about the history and symbolism of the most impressive monument of the Soviet footprint in Berlin. The largest anti-fascist memorial in Europe and Germany's largest military cemetery will help us to learn about Soviet art, Hitler's expansion throughout Europe, the forgotten victims of World War II, Stalin's policies and many more issues that determined the lives of Berliners and Germans for 50 years.
A must-see tour to understand the German history of the 20th century.
