If we look closely, we find that drugs have played a pivotal role at the heart of every chapter in Berlin’s modern history.

This tour focuses on the psychology and lives of both victims and perpetrators, exploring clues to the central question. It began with polarizing, violent, and stigmatizing words during the Weimar Republic and escalated over twelve years of dictatorship. The camp system started provisionally when Hitler came to power, evolving from the idea of “protective custody” to forced labor exploitation, and ultimately to the death camps of the “Final Solution.” Sachsenhausen existed for nine years. Originally planned for about 6,000 inmates, it eventually held over 40,000, with more than 50,000 people losing their lives there. In 1936 this model camp was built in the forest during the Berlin Olympic Games. Its architecture is a stark testament to the SS’s omnipotent control and the professionalization of terror. The tour is information-dense, covering multiple storylines that unfolded simultaneously at the camp. All guides hold the official certification of the memorial site.

Berlin was the political center of Nazism, and its streets carry the weight of that history. On this self-guided philosophical audio tour, you'll examine how ordinary people, institutions, and ideology made the destruction of humanity possible. The tour starts at the Brandenburg Gate, where you'll reflect on the Prussian mindset of obedience that preceded Nazism. From there, you'll walk past the Reichstag building, where 96 parliamentary members were murdered after the Nazis used the 1933 fire to suspend civil liberties and crush political opposition. You'll pass through the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, Peter Eisenman's disorienting field of slabs, and visit the nearby Memorial to the Homosexuals Persecuted Under Nazism. The tour ends at the Topography of Terror, built on the former Gestapo and SS headquarters, a site that existed for decades as a racing track before historians and activists literally dug it into public memory.
