Tour description

Adolf Hitler celebrated his victory in the 1933 Reichstag elections with long torchlight marches through the Brandenburg Gate. After taking power, they occupied the venerable palaces and planned gigantic new buildings, such as the Ministry of Propaganda or the Aviation Ministry. Millions of murders were planned in Wilhelmstraße and war raged all over Europe. Hitler himself had his Chancellery built nearby. At the beginning of 1945 he hid in the Berlin underground, commanded the "Battle of Berlin" from his bunker and finally committed suicide there.

And this is what you will see on this city tour:
