Step by Step
On this tour you can visit the Jewish quarter in Berlin, of great importance for the history of the city and the country. It is located in the Mitte district, to the north of Alexanderplatz, very close to the main tourist sights of the city.
In a small group of about 10 people, you will be guided by an expert guide through all the places full of history. You can also admire the New Berlin Synagogue and its incredible external architecture, which was built in the 19th century and damaged in 1938 during the so-called "Night of Broken Glass".
You will also walk through the Old Jewish Cemetery of Berlin, where you will not find any graves or mausoleums, because it was looted by the Nazi regime. However, you will see one of the most important and moving monuments, designed by artists Will and Mark Lambert to commemorate the Jews who were deported by the Nazi regime.
The Jewish Quarter is extremely important in Berlin and European history and culture. It was never a ghetto, as Jews were scattered throughout the city, but over time they became concentrated in what is now known as the Jewish Quarter due to its proximity to the New Synagogue and the Old Jewish Cemetery.
