The monuments, memorials, and other sites where key events happened. Today, Berlin is a modern, vibrant capital city. But this tour takes you on a journey through its dark and complex past. Berlin was the city where terrible atrocities took place from the book burnings of 1933 to the horrific events of Kristallnacht in 1939 which saw the growing open and state-sanctioned violence towards the Jewish population.
