Description
On this Berlin architecture tour, you’ll join a private guide, who will show you the glorious clash that is Berlin’s skyline. In our city, ordinary everyday buildings stand side-by-side with the most impressive architectural experiments of historic and modern times. You’ll explore the best and the worst of what was left behind – the monstrous and glorious constructions of kings and emperors, as well as the relics left behind by tyrannical dictatorships. Taking you along the magnificent boulevard of Unter den Linden, your personal guide — an expert in Berlin art, history, and architecture — will show you sites like the baroque facades of the Humboldt Forum, and the neoclassical Neue Wache memorial for the victims of war and dictatorship. At the DZ Building, check out the deconstructivist work of Frank Gehry. And at the Kulturforum, check out innovative modernist architecture by the likes of Hans Scharoun and Mies van der Rohe. Other architectural sites worth seeing include Museums Insel (Museum Island), the British Embassy, Potsdamer Platz, the Jewish Museum, Karl-Marx Allee and Mediaspree. At each stop, your private guide will provide context to help you to understand how, when and why the most famous buildings in Berlin were constructed (or destroyed!). Our city’s complex, varied architectural landscape is part of what gives Berlin its unique character. You’ll leave the tour with an understanding of how Berlin’s turbulent history left its mark on her architecture, allowing you to appreciate it all with a fresh perspective.
