Berlin Third Reich and Cold War 2-Hour Walking Tour

Step into Berlin’s dramatic past on a guided two-hour walking tour that brings the city’s Third Reich and Cold War history to life. Begin at the iconic Brandenburg Gate, where your English-speaking guide shares why this monument stands as a powerful symbol of German reunification.

Stroll past the Reichstag and the somber Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, pausing to reflect on the city’s turbulent twentieth-century events. Visit the site of Hitler’s Bunker and hear about the final days of World War II, as well as how Berliners continue to confront their history.

Explore the former headquarters of the Gestapo and SS, now home to the Topography of Terror exhibition, and walk the length of the imposing Ministry of Aviation, where the German Democratic Republic was proclaimed in 1949. See preserved sections of the Berlin Wall and learn about daring escape attempts and the realities of life in divided Berlin.

Your journey concludes at Checkpoint Charlie, where you’ll uncover stories of Cold War tensions, including the dramatic tank standoff and the night the Wall fell in 1989. The tour is fully accessible, suitable for all fitness levels, and led by a knowledgeable local guide. Meet your guide in front of the Tourist Information office at the Brandenburg Gate—just look for the pink umbrella!
