Overview

Explore West Berlin’s Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, one of the city’s most exciting neighborhoods, reinventing itself every few decades, on this self-guided walking tour. It became a posh Parisian-style neighborhood in the late 1800s before the Roaring Twenties’ glitter and glamour gave way to NS-raids in the 30s, followed by war and destruction in the 40s and student protests in the 60s. The area was reinvigorated in 1989 when exhilarated East Germans flocked the streets. Explore Kurfürstendamm and Kantstrasse, uncovering traces of these times. Starting and ending at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, you’ll experience the amazing blue light inside Eiermann’s Church, hear about icons like David Bowie at Paris Bar, and remember the victims of the 2016 Christmas Market attack. You’ll see Ku-Damm’s mix of historic and modern buildings, Kantstrasse’s trendy restaurants, and learn about places like Schildkröte and Hotel Savoy Berlin, where spies once stayed. Let’s bring 100 years to life!
