Description

Discover the secrets that Berlin still hides among its once-divided streets. This guided tour will take you to the city’s most emblematic sites marked by the Wall: from the Brandenburg Gate to the legendary Checkpoint Charlie, passing through Leipziger and Potsdamer Platz, the Topography of Terror, and the Panoramapunkt. Explore areas that were once 'no man’s land', like the base of the former GDR watchtower, and uncover real stories of escape, repression, and resistance. Talk about visible symbols of the division, such as the famous Ampelmann or the difference in street lighting between East and West Berlin. Discover architectural gems like the Martin-Gropius-Bau, the Bundesrat, and the socialist mural of June 17th — all enriched with historical anecdotes, fun facts (did you know the first traffic light in Europe was here?), and reflections on the city's historical memory.
