Along the way, we will visit the socialist works, mosaics and bas-reliefs of Alexanderplatz, then arrive at the imposing Karl Marx Allee the highlight of this tour. Karl Marx Allee is a monumental socialist boulevard, in Soviet architectural style, built by the German Democratic Republic (GDR) between 1952 and 1960 in Berlin Friedrichshain and Mitte. Today, the boulevard bears the name of Karl Marx. The boulevard was named Stalinallee between 1949 and 1961 and was a landmark building project in East Germany's post-World War II reconstruction program. Designed by architects Hermann Henselmann, Hartmann, Hopp, Leucht, Paulick and Souradny, it was to contain spacious and luxurious apartments for workers, as well as shops, restaurants, cafes (Moscow cafe), a tourist hotel and a huge cinema, the Kino International, which we will discover together.
