Kreuzberg
Once a 19th-century worker’s district and former part of West Berlin, Kreuzberg has reshaped itself through immigrants, capitalists, anarchists, artists, WWII bombs, and Cold War suppression. Today, the neighborhood is a buzzing hub of counterculture, cafes, art, bars, and a salad bowl of immigrants providing diverse cuisine options and market goods. This 3-hour Kreuzberg tour highlights the neighborhood’s authentic identity, as it continues to push back against gentrification and development.
Memorial of the Berlin Wall
Ponder what remains of the Berlin Wall before continuing past street art-filled walls, abandoned buildings, and plots of land that have been creatively transformed into art hubs.
