Neighborhood walk
Despite the fact that the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, it is still clear what is east and what is west in the cityscape. Friedrichshain is a very good example to this as the neighborhood is still characterized by having been on the eastern side. This makes it a remarkable district to walk around in with both classic architecture and curiosities reflecting the colorful neighborhood and spots untouched by the “western way of thinking”.
Your guided tour:
The guided tours are intended for everyone; those who have been in Berlin several times and those who have never visited the city before and will be customized based on the interests of the group getting the tour. The tours are suitable for both small and larger groups.

Statements by our previous visitors
”It was possible to ask questions, both in the gallery and on the tour which made it really intimate and comfortable. There was a lot of information about the time before the wall came down which we could not get from the guidebooks and that made it really interesting!”Group of friends from Copenhagen.
”We got a lot of insider knowledge from both before and after the wall came down. Some of the places we would not be able to find ourselves and even if some of us have been in Berlin before, we have all experienced some completely new sides of the city… And it was great to end the tour at one of the local restaurants and be able to talk about it all jointly.”
A group of 40 from the company CLAVIS.
“It was really exciting to see some of the backyards and the street art in the district and experience the contradictions in the district without experiencing any tension: Neo-Nazis, autonomous, bourgeois and families with children living in peace and tranquility. They are cohabiting despite the fact that the district has signs of previous clashes between the different groups… And that’s cool!”
Students from Århus University
”Friedrichshain is a very historical neighborhood and it was interesting to combine that with information about art in Berlin and how it is moving, so to speak. It is definitely not the last time we are doing one of those tours.”

Kunst Und Widerstand
In der Galleri Heike Arndt Berlin können Sie jetzt Führungen mit dem Thema Kunst und DDR-Geschichten erleben – in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Jugend(Widerstands)museum!
Friedrichshain hat eine lange Tradition als Ort des zivilen Widerstands und des Ungehorsams gegen Unterdrückung und Einschränkung der Freiheit. Mit der Eröffnung der Dauerausstellung „Warten Sie nicht auf bessere Zeiten“ hat die Hedwig-Wachenheim-Gesellschaft e.V. die Galiläakirche zu einem Ort gemacht, an dem der Jugendwiderstand in der DDR dauerhaft dokumentiert wird. Vor allem junge Menschen sind eingeladen, sich mit der DDR-Geschichte auseinanderzusetzen.
Kontaktieren Sie uns, um eine Führung für 10-120 Personen zu buchen!
