Your Itinerary

Nicholas Quarter

Nikolaiviertel, located in the heart of Berlin, is a charming historic neighborhood renowned for its quaint cobblestone streets, picturesque squares, and well-preserved medieval architecture. It is often referred to as the "birthplace of Berlin," as it is where the city's roots trace back to the 13th century. From here, you'll start the city's exploration tracing back its origins.

Alexanderplatz

Alexanderplatz is one of Berlin's most iconic and bustling squares, serving as a major transportation hub, commercial center, and cultural hotspot. Located in the heart of the city, it has played a significant role in Berlin's history and continues to be a vibrant focal point for locals and tourists alike. The square is renowned for its impressive architectural landmarks, including the towering Fernsehturm (TV Tower), which dominates the skyline and offers panoramic views of the city from its observation deck. Nearby, visitors can admire the striking modernist architecture of the Berliner Fernsehturm (Berlin TV Tower) and the distinctive red-brick Rotes Rathaus (Red City Hall).

Museum Island

Museum Island, located in the heart of Berlin, Germany, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its concentration of world-class museums and cultural institutions. Situated on the Spree River, it is home to five internationally significant museums: the Altes Museum (Old Museum), Neues Museum (New Museum), Alte Nationalgalerie (Old National Gallery), Bode Museum, and Pergamon Museum. We recommend to check availability and opening times for those wishing to enter these landmarks (at your expense, not included with this audio-guide).

Bebelplatz

Bebelplatz, located in the heart of Berlin, Germany, is a historic square with significant cultural and political importance. One of its most notable features is the underground memorial to the infamous Nazi book burning that took place here on May 10, 1933. The square is flanked by grand buildings, including the State Opera and St. Hedwig's Cathedral, adding to its architectural charm.

Checkpoint Charlie

Checkpoint Charlie was one of the most famous border crossings between East and West Berlin during the Cold War. It gained its name from the NATO phonetic alphabet ("Charlie" representing the letter "C") and served as a symbol of the divided city.

Potsdamer Platz

Potsdamer Platz is a bustling square in the heart of Berlin, Germany, renowned for its vibrant energy and historical significance. Once a no-man's-land during the Cold War division of the city, Potsdamer Platz has undergone a remarkable transformation into a modern urban center. Today, it stands as a symbol of Berlin's rebirth and unity following the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

The Holocaust Memorial in Berlin, officially known as the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, is a poignant and somber tribute to the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Designed by architect Peter Eisenman and engineer Buro Happold, the memorial consists of 2,711 concrete slabs of varying heights arranged in a grid pattern across a 19,000-square-meter site near the Brandenburg Gate.

Brandenburg Gate

The Brandenburg Gate stands as an iconic symbol of Berlin, Germany, and its tumultuous history. This neoclassical monument, built in the late 18th century, is characterized by its grand columns, central arch, and topped by the Quadriga, a chariot drawn by four horses driven by Victoria, the Roman goddess of victory. Originally a symbol of peace, it has witnessed significant historical events, including the division of East and West Berlin during the Cold War. Today, it serves as a symbol of unity and freedom, standing proudly as a landmark at the heart of the city, attracting millions of visitors annually.

Marx-Engels-Forum

The Marx-Engels Forum in Berlin is a public square located in the central Mitte district of the city. Named after the renowned philosophers and political theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, the forum serves as a symbolic space commemorating their contributions to socialist thought and the workers' movement. The site features statues of Marx and Engels, as well as a series of open-air installations and historical markers that highlight their ideas and the historical context of their work. It has become a significant gathering place for political demonstrations, cultural events, and public discourse on social justice and economic equality. Additionally, the forum serves as a popular destination for both locals and tourists interested in the legacy of Marx and Engels and the history of socialism in Germany.
