Tour Berlino Est e Muro (ITA) Student

Immerse yourself in Berlin’s turbulent history by exploring the city’s most iconic sites linked to the Wall and the Cold War. This Italian-language tour takes you through the former East Berlin, with key stops including Potsdamer Platz, the former ghost station at Nordbahnhof, remnants of the no man’s land at the Berlin Wall Memorial, the famous Alexanderplatz, and the colourful East Side Gallery. Each stop offers deeper insight into the divided city and the challenges of that era.
With a passionate guide, you’ll discover how the construction of the Wall in 1961 brutally split Berlin in two, forever altering the daily lives of its residents. At the Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Strasse, you'll revisit the darkest chapters of the division: escape attempts, human tragedies, and an all-encompassing surveillance system. As you walk through these historic places, you’ll hear moving stories that bring this recent past to life.
This exploration of East Berlin is far more than a historical walk – it is a vivid journey into the collective memory that has shaped the Berlin we know today.
