Overview
Berlin is the city where twentieth-century Europe left its deepest traces.
Industrialization, empire, revolutions, dictatorship, destruction, the Cold War and rebirth were intertwined here.
On this tour we will travel through the city center to trace the great transformations that have marked the last century: from imperial Berlin to the 1920s, from Nazism to the division of the Wall to the capital of reunified Germany.
We will walk among some of the city's most symbolic sites-Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag, Holocaust Memorial, Potsdamer Platz, and traces of the Wall-looking at how history has shaped the urban space and identity of contemporary Berlin.
Today Berlin is one of Europe's leading urban laboratories: a capital city that has transformed the wounds of its history into culture, innovation, and new ways of experiencing the city.
This tour is the ideal starting point to understand Berlin and begin to really read its spaces, symbols, and contradictions.
