Learn about the historical backgrounds of Germany’s division and the everyday life in a divided city on this bike tour.
Far more than just a wall, the Berlin Wall was a symbol for the misery and the most visible sign of the struggle between two systems. For almost 30 years, this 160-kilometer-long, so-called “death strip” cut through the city and the lives of its people.
The stories around the Berlin Wall are many; from the funny, to the tragic, to the unbelievably absurd. Along the 15 kilometers between Bornholmer Straße and the government district, this bike tour follows the obvious as well as the hidden remnants. Along the way, you’ll see border checkpoints like Checkpoint Charlie, places like Mauerpark and the official Berlin Wall Memorial on Bernauer Straße with the last remaining, totally intact portion of the Berlin Wall and a guard tower.
Delve into the political dimensions, the background circumstances and, above all, the human element in the everyday madness of life in a divided city, right where it happened.
