Overview

Today, nothing on Berlin's Hausvogteiplatz reminds us of the successful Berlin clothing store. In the 1920s, Berlin was among the top 5 in international fashion. Berlin was mentioned in a whisper alongside Paris, Milan or New York.

Today you will get a little insight into the history of Berlin clothing and get to know the pioneers of clothing. Living mannequins, fashion shows, fashion magazines were the trend of his time. You will also encounter the tragic and brutal Aryanization of an entire industry on this tour.

Forgetting is the worst thing we can do to our ancestors. By taking part in this tour, we remember a valuable industry that was destroyed by the Nazi dictatorship. Berlin never recovered from that.
