Off-The-Beaten-Track-Tour across Berlin in a car or minivan

This is an off-the-beaten-track experience across Berlin, combining the diversity of the city with its history. Along the way you'll see Nazi-era buildings as well as a 19th century hospital, now converted into a splendid and sprawling apartment complex; equally, you'll come across stumblestones commemorating murdered Jews during the Nazi-era that are next to some faux-Tudor style buildings developed by one of Berlin's most important turn-of-the-century city developers. You'll also see a typical late 19th century tenement building set against a converted bunker. The quirky diversity of Neukölln with its Turkish Market mark the end of this tour, one which some have described to have an "A" and a "B" Side, though which one is which no one seems to agree!

   Take a look at what used to be one of Berlin's largest temples, built by Alexander Beer, who was later murdered in Terezin. The synagogue was set ablaze during the pogroms in November 1938 and subsequently destroyed during WWII. Only one wing of this once proud neo Baroque building survived, however, the building is set to be rebuilt starting 2023.
