Overview Tour with a Side Trip to Sites of Jewish History
Special Tour in Celebration of "Berlin Says Thank You"
Bernauer Strasse was one of the focal points of the division of Germany. The multifaceted consequences of the construction of the Wall are visible here: the destruction of the urban landscape and people’s lives, and the separation of family members and friends. This guided tour also examines the GDR’s relationship with its Jewish population and with Israel in the context of the Cold War and highlights traces of Jewish life in Berlin within the former border zone. The tour is part of the “Berlin Says Thank You” series.Translated with DeepL
