So klein war Berlin früher … Entlang von originalen Objekten, digitalen Medienstationen und großformatigen Modellen geht‘s in einer Stunde durch 800 Jahre Geschichte.
If you want to know why a quarter of Berlin’s population actually came from Cölln or where the idiom “Retourkutsche” comes from, then you’ve come to the right place. You’ll also find answers to many other questions about Berlin’s city history.
The tour also explores Berlin’s unique characteristics and what made—or still makes—Berlin so special. Along the way, you’ll encounter Berlin’s oldest domestic pig skeleton, “Alter Fritz,” and the artist couple Christo and Jeanne-Claude. They all have stories to tell.
Meeting point: Foyer
