This is not a tour about what is there, but about what is missing. In the Spandau suburb, among cafes and boutiques, lies a landscape of absence. Discover the Scheunenviertel, once the heart of Jewish Berlin. We feel the scars of the Nazi regime afterwards – destroyed places and voids where there used to be people and culture. From Haus Schwarzenberg to the silence of the Missing House, the tour explores how Berlin remembers what was lost: a story of resistance, erasure, and persistent memory.
- 1.5 km self-guided tour with 6 stations over 76 min.
- Ideal for everyone interested in history & memory and identity, migration & globalization
Excitingly told in a podcast style by experts and locals
