You'll begin at Bahnhof Friedrichstraße, the historic railway station whose curved iron bridge spans the Spree River.

Berlin was the political center of Nazism, and its streets carry the weight of that history.

The tour starts at the Brandenburg Gate, where you'll reflect on the Prussian mindset of obedience that preceded Nazism.
