Description

This self-guided audio tour of the East Side Gallery of the Berlin Wall will guide you through the iconic site where history comes alive. Marvel at the powerful murals that adorn the wall and listen to the voices of eye-witnesses as you explore. The tour takes you on a journey through the past, exploring the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, and the different problems that the Wall represented.

Looking at the artworks, you'll discover the many perspectives of life beyond the wall, and hear first-hand accounts of censorship, tolerance, and freedom. One of the highlights of our tour is the iconic mural "Test the Rest" by Birgit Kinder, depicting an East German Trabant car breaking through the wall.

Another must-see mural is "Fraternal Kiss" by Dmitry Vrubel, featuring the embrace between Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and East German leader Erich Honecker. You'll hear the true story behind this famous mural and how it came to be.
