Tour Itinerary
´Fascinating` says Lonely Planet
The once elegant Wilhelm Strasse and the surrounding streets gained a terrifying reputation during the Third Reich. Come and visit them with us and learn about our disturbing past.
On Wilhelm Platz, propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels transformed an 18th century palace into the sinister Propaganda Ministry. Off the same square, Hitler built his intimidating New Reichschancellery and close by, the bunker where he committed suicide.
On Wilhelm Strasse itself, Goering built the monumental Air Ministry while Himmler's SS and the Gestapo headquarters turned Prinz-Albrecht-Strasse into the most feared address in the Third Reich.
Sixty years later, some of the street names have changed but one cannot escape the Nazi past: we examine how this past is being looked at today and finish the tour above the exact position of Hitler's bunker, exploding the myths surrounding Hitler's fate during the last days of the war.

Duration is about 3 hours. We use public transport on this tour; you can buy public transport tickets from the guide, if you have not bought them already. (€ 2.10).
