This tour takes us to the original locations where history took place. We revisit the events that led to reunification and share with you the moments we experienced first-hand. We will show you how Prenzlauer Berg and Berlin Mitte have changed and how nice it is to live here now. The tour through Prenzlauer Berg and Berlin Mitte is a real highlight, even in the evening.
The Lichtblick cinema and the associated building community at Kastanienallee 77 is a place to travel back in time to the 90s in Prenzlauer Berg. An oasis in the city with interesting graffiti on the wall. It shows an independent cinema program and is the smallest cinema in Berlin.
Where the death strip used to be, Mauerpark is now a hive of activity. At the weekend, the park is a trendy meeting place with a flea market, barbecues and karaoke. Instead of GDR soccer, there are now various sporting events - a highlight for the "real Berlin".
Recently converted into a bicycle street, Oderberger Straße in the nightlife district around Kastanienallee now boasts beautiful stores, cafés and one of Berlin's best ice cream parlors. The residents have been known for their political and artistic commitment since the 1980s.
The Bornholmer Strasse border crossing was the first to open the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989. Around 20,000 people streamed from East to West Berlin, marking the reunification of Berlin and Germany and signifying "freedom" for many.
The Gethsemane Church in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg, built between 1891 and 1893, became famous in 1989 as a meeting place for civil rights activists. Today it serves as an active community center for church services and cultural events.
This legendary Berlin backyard combines history, art and culture. In addition to the Museum Blindenwerkstatt Otto Weidt, there are artists' studios, a cinema, Café Central and the Eschschloraque Rümschrümp bar. An Eldorado for street art fans.
he Volksbühne, founded in 1890, is known for its avant-garde, socially critical productions. Under René Pollesch, it continues to offer provocative plays and stands as a symbol of artistic freedom and relevance.
The Reichstag in Berlin, originally the seat of the German Empire, became the seat of the Bundestag after reunification in 1999. Sir Norman Foster oversaw the renovation, including the new construction of the iconic glass dome, which symbolizes transparency and offers visitors a unique panoramic view of the city. As a symbol of German democracy, the Reichstag is open to the public and offers a permanent exhibition on the history and function of parliament.
The Brandenburg Gate, a landmark of the city and symbol of German unity, impresses with its splendor. Experience the special atmosphere of this historic site up close.
Opened in 1951, the Friedrich Ludwig Jahn Sports Park, named after the father of gymnastics, is an important sports complex with a stadium for 20,000 spectators, training grounds and an athletics hall. Currently being modernized, it remains central for sport and leisure.
