Discover the tumultuous contemporary history of Berlin on a guided walking tour. Learn about the city under the Third Reich and the division of the city in subsequent years during the Cold War.
Step into the past and explore Berlin’s complex history on this guided walking tour. Choose between a group or private tour and visit historical landmarks, including the Reichstag, the Soviet War Memorial in Tiergarten, the Berlin Wall, and the infamous Checkpoint Charlie.
Begin at the Brandenburg Gate, an enduring symbol of Berlin’s division and reunification. Hear how it stood at the heart of Nazi parades, Cold War tensions, and, ultimately, Germany’s path to unity in 1989.
Pass by the Reichstag, where you’ll unravel the mystery of the 1933 Reichstag Fire, a turning point in Hitler’s rise to power. Learn how this historic building survived war, destruction, and division to become the seat of German democracy.
At the Soviet War Memorial in Tiergarten, see preserved Red Army tanks and pay tribute to the 80,000 Soviet soldiers who fell during the Battle of Berlin. Then, pause at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, a haunting installation that honors the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
Stand at the site of Hitler’s Bunker, where the Nazi leader spent his final days before the fall of the Third Reich. Nearby, see Hermann Göring’s former Ministry of Aviation, later the birthplace of East Germany in 1949. Continue to the former headquarters of the SS and Gestapo, where the Nazi regime’s reign of terror was orchestrated.
Next, arrive at a 200-meter stretch of the Berlin Wall, a chilling reminder of the decades-long division between East and West. Hear stories of those who risked everything to escape and the lasting impact of the wall’s fall.
Your journey concludes at Checkpoint Charlie, where American and Soviet tanks once faced off in a tense Cold War standoff. Relive dramatic escape attempts and the pivotal final hours before the wall came down, reuniting Germany.
This tour offers a powerful and insightful journey through Berlin’s history, bringing to life the events that shaped the city and modern Europe.
