Join us on a profound journey through Berlin's tumultuous past with our "WWII & Third Reich Tour ." This immersive experience begins in the heart of the city, where we'll explore key landmarks that played pivotal roles during the Third Reich era. Our expert guides will lead you through iconic sites such as the Reichstag, the Brandenburg Gate, and the haunting Holocaust Memorial, as well as the Sinti-Roma Memorial and the Soviet Memorial, providing in-depth historical context. As we walk through these historical sites, we'll discuss the rise and fall of the Nazi regime, the impact on Berlin, and the lasting effects on the world.
The second part of our tour shifts focus to Berlin's Jewish Quarter, a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of the Jewish community. Visits to key sites such as the New Synagogue, the Hackman Hoffe, and various memorials dedicated to Jewish history provide a deeper understanding of Jewish life in Berlin before, during, and after the Nazi era.
Once a symbol of triumph, the Brandenburg Gate also became a site of Nazi parades and propaganda during the Third Reich. Today, it stands as a monument to peace and unity, reflecting the changing tides of history.
This memorial commemorates the Sinti and Roma victims of the Nazi regime, located in the Tiergarten near the Reichstag. The circular pool with a central triangle (reflecting the badges Sinti and Roma were forced to wear) is a poignant reminder of the atrocities faced by these communities.
The Soviet Memorial in Treptower Park honors the Soviet soldiers who fell during the Battle of Berlin in World War II. Its grand statues and solemn atmosphere serve as a powerful reminder of the war's devastating effects and the role of the Soviet Union in Berlin's history.
