Højdepunkter

This tour focuses on the Berlin of the Nazi-era. By singling out a range of buildings the mechanisms and the brutality of the Nazi-regime will get highlighted, as will the fact that besides millions of people losing their lives, at the end of the Nazi-terror lay a city and a country in shame and in rubble, to be subsequently divided, with a wall separating the east from the west. This tour takes visitors back to places where things actually happened by also underlining the fact that the Germany of today is a place different from what it was then, yet still haunted by the phantoms of the past.

About Berlin

Berlin er Tysklands kreative, åbensindede hovedstad, hvor vartegn fra en turbulent historie står blandt kunst, grønne parker og legendarisk natteliv.

Brandenburger Tor er byens symbol, tæt på Rigsdagsbygningen med sin glaskuppel og Mindesmærket for Europas myrdede jøder. Fragmenter af Berlinmuren er bevaret, mest slående ved East Side Gallery, en lang strækning dækket af vægmalerier, og ved mindestedet på Bernauer Strasse, mens Checkpoint Charlie markerer den mest berømte tidligere grænseovergang.

Top-ranked sights in Berlin: Brandenburg Gate (Brandenburger Tor), Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (Holocaust Memorial), Checkpoint Charlie.
