Berlin through the centuries

Berlin through the centuries

Please follow me through the streets of Berlin to discover the history of the German capital, from the Nikolaïviertel to the Potsdamer Platz. You will see the evolution of Berlin through the centuries. I will explain to you how a little city located on the eastern border of Germany will become its capital.

We will meet in front of the Marienkirch (St Mary Church). During our tour we will see : 
- the Nikolaïviertel (the birthplace of Berlin) 
- the Alexanderplatz 
- the Museums Island 
- the Humboldt Forum as the new city palace 
- the Bebelplatz planned by Frederick the Great in the 18th Century 
- the Gendarmenmarkt and the settlement of the French Huguenots 
- the Potsdamerplatz with its modern architecture 
- the Brandenburg Gate symbol of Berlin 
- the Reichstag and the Government district 

The tour is by walking but it will be always possible if needed to use the public transportations. The tour can always be a bit longer that what is planned.
