Join our exciting tour of Soviet Berlin and discover its hidden history. Explore the Treptow War Memorial and immerse yourself in the Soviet perspective on those events.
Do you want to learn what no one has ever told us? Discover history from the Soviet perspective and understand the origins of the division of Berlin, Germany, and Europe? This is the tour for you! For the past five years, I’ve been offering this tour to tourists passionate about art and history who want to get away from the more commercial tours. We’ll explore the history and symbolism of the most impressive monument to the Soviet legacy in Berlin. Europe’s largest anti-fascist memorial and Germany’s largest military cemetery will serve as a backdrop to explain Soviet art, Hitler’s war against the USSR, the forgotten victims of World War II, Stalin’s plans for Europe, and other historical events that shaped the lives of Berliners and Germans for 50 years. An essential tour for understanding 20th-century German history. Some highlights of the tour: The roots of German division. The Battle of Berlin and the end of the war. The Great Patriotic War, or the Soviet narrative of history. Stalinism and art. Communism: the new religion. Lebensraum: Hitler’s plans for Eastern Europe. Rape and abuse of the civilian population. And much more...
