What you will be doing
Begin with a powerful tribute to the often-overlooked victims of the Nazi regime. This striking memorial commemorates the 500,000 persecuted Sinti and Roma people with symbolic design and emotional resonance.
Explore Germany’s iconic parliament building—from its imperial roots to the Nazi rise to power and the Battle of Berlin. Learn how this building was at the centre of Hitler's climb to dictatorship.
A grand yet solemn tribute to the 80,000 Soviet soldiers who died taking Berlin in 1945. Built from Hitler’s own Reich Chancellery, it stands as both memorial and historical irony.
Walk through a haunting forest of 2,711 concrete stelae that symbolize the void left by the Holocaust. Reflect on its abstract design, which encourages personal interpretation.
Discover this lesser-known monument and learn how the Holocaust affected many marginalized communities—not just the Jewish population.
Stand above the hidden remains of Hitler’s final command post. This was the site of his last days before the Nazi collapse. Nothing remains above ground, yet the site is thick with history.
Learn about the man who almost changed history. Elser attempted to assassinate Hitler in 1939—his story is one of bravery and near-miss resistance.
Once the heart of Nazi air strategy, this massive structure is now home to Germany’s tax offices. An imposing example of intimidating Nazi architecture.
Finish at the former Gestapo and SS headquarters—now a museum and exhibition space preserving the basements where terror reigned. Includes preserved sections of the Berlin Wall and powerful exhibits documenting the crimes of the Nazi regime.
