The Red Star Tour journeys into the tumultuous history of Berlin in the throes of civil war, the emergence of the extraordinary figures of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht and the formation of the Communist Party of Germany (KPD). Explore the ideological impetus of the Communist Revolution, the resistance to Nazism before and during WW2 and East Germany''s birth in the aftermath of Soviet victory. Visit the Government Quarter of Soviet East Germany and the remaining Portal of the Berlin Palace ? where the Socialist State was proclaimed, the birth place of the German Communist Party, the socialist modernism of Alexander-platz, Marx Engels Forum and the monumentalism of Karl Marx Allee ? not to be missed! Insight into everyday life in East Germany in terms of education, health, culture, the existence of the Stasi and “Anti Fascist” barrier of the Wall. Be moved by the massive Soviet memorial in Treptower Park ? one of the most powerful reminders of the Nazi-Soviet War and resting place of 5000 Soviet Soldiers. Then walk the length of the East-Side Gallery ? the longest existing stretch of the Berlin Wall and massive outdoor art gallery. (We advise you to bring a dayticket for public transport.)
Tour Meets: Hackescher Markt S-Bahn Station opposite the British Council
