A walk which explores Berlin’s darkest chapter – its twelve tumultuous years as the capital of Adolf Hitler’s so-called Third Reich – and the city’s remaining National Socialist architecture, including the former Reich Aviation Ministry and Propaganda Ministry buildings.
On this walk, we’ll see:
the Brandenburg Gate and Reichstag
the site of Hitler’s Chancellery and Bunker
Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess’ headquarters
Josef Goebbels’ Propaganda Ministry and Hermann Goering’s Aviation Ministry
a monument to Georg Elser, Hitler’s would-be assassin
the site of the Gestapo HQ, the modern-day Topography of Terror documentation centre
the last bullet holes still visible in central Berlin from the Red Army invasion in 1945
the memorials to Jewish, gay, and Sinti and Roma people persecuted by the Nazis
We can also take an extended version of this tour, and see:
Tempelhof Airport
the Olympic Stadium
the last remaining Nazi eagles in Berlin
the Nazis’ broadcasting house
