Brandenburg Gate, Berlin, Germany The Brandenburg Gate is a monument in Berlin that was built by Frederick William II in the 18th century. It was originally located on the site of a former city gate.
It is in the western part of Berlin, close to Mitte, and is at the intersection of Ebertstrae and Unter den Linden. The main intersection between the Pariser Platz and the Reichstag building is the gate.
The Brandenburg Gate was often a site of major historical events throughout its existence. Today, it is considered a symbol of European unity and peace. 10 minutes
Reichstag Building, Berlin, Germany The Reichstag is a historic building in Berlin. It houses the Bundestag, Germany's lower house of parliament.
The Reichstag was built to house the Imperial Diet, which was the German Empire's political body. It was opened in 1894, and it remained there until 1933 when it was destroyed by fire. Following the Second World War, it was badly damaged. It was then completely restored in 1999. 15 minutes
Soviet Memorial Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany The Soviet War Memorial in Berlin is one of the many war monuments in the German capital. The Soviet Union erected it in 1945 to commemorate the soldiers of the Soviet Armed Forces, who died in the Battle of Berlin.
The memorial is located in the Groer Tiergarten. It is located on the northwest corner of the city's east-west Straße des 17.
15 minutes
The Holocaust Memorial - Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, Berlin, Germany In 1999, a memorial site was established for the murdered Jews of Europe. Architect Peter Eisenman designed the site.
For the Memorial, Eisenman placed over 2711 concrete slabs on a site that measured 19,000 square meters. Its uneven concrete floor gives visitors a moment of uncertainty or even giddiness. Its openness and abstractness allow one to confront the topic in their own personal way. 15 minutes
Hitler's Bunker, Berlin, Germany The Fhrerbunker was an air-raid shelter built in Berlin during World War II. It was the last of the Fuhrer's headquarters.
On January 16, 1945, Hitler took over the Fhrerbunker. He married Eva Braun on April 29, 1945, less than 40 hours before their suicide.
The old Chancellery buildings were levelled by the Soviets, while the new ones were built. The underground complex remained mostly undisturbed until 1988. 15 minutes
Stülerstraße 8-10, 10787 Berlin, Duitsland The embassy of the Democratic People' Republic of Korea in Berlin is located in the district Glinkastrae 5 in the city's Mitte area. 10 minutes

Juni 1953, Wilhelmstraße 97, 10117 Berlin, Duitsland The June 17, 1953, uprising, which was the first major challenge to the communist regime after the war was suppressed by the Soviet Union's tanks. About 15,000 people were arrested following the incident. 15 minutes

Our guide, Mark, was outstanding!!! He really knew his stuff and brought the whole experience to life. He had pictures to help show what things looked like during the war versus now, and was able to answer all the questions we asked. If you are considering, I highly recommend this tour!
