Description
Explore the vibrant history and current dynamics of Berlin’s LGBTIQ community on a condensed, 1.5-hour private tour. Led by a local guide, this tour takes you through key districts of Kreuzberg and Schöneberg, shedding light on the roots of the alternative LGBT movement and the transformative years of the early 20th century. Begin your journey at Görlitzer Bahnhof train station, located in the heart of Kreuzberg, the district known for its punk and anarchist spirit. As you walk towards Kottbusser Tor station, you'll learn about the genesis of the alternative LGBT movement in this neighborhood, a testament to Berlin's enduring spirit of freedom and self-expression.

Discover the darker history of this vibrant district as you hear about the challenges faced during the Nazi era, when this oasis of freedom became a main target of repression. Finally, end your tour at the well-connected Nollendorfplatz station. Here, you're free to continue your exploration of the city or return to your accommodations.
