SEE BERLIN THROUGH A DIFFERENT LENS new TOPHIGHLIGHTS • Discover Berlin’s legacy guided by a leading expert • Taste local German food as you explore the German culture 24SEPTEMBER–1OCTOBER2018 Berlin Stream 2 - Layers of History Confront different layers and eras of Berlin’s history, visiting the capital of Germany and its fascinating past. The capital has not only been at the crossroads of different cultures, but before returning to its current status, it was in turn the capital of Prussia, the German Empire, the W eimar Republic, and the Third Reich. Not only the epicentre of the Cold War, but a divided city in the heart of East Germany and Europe, until the wall came down in 1989. Understand how a single city can reflect various historical periods, and its perception through the cityscape. While lectures and self-study will be part of the learning experience, you will spend the vast majority of your time on guided visits and tours. You will visit Berlin landmarks and surroundings including the Reichstag, the Allied Museum, the Berlin Wall Memorial, Neuhardenberg Castle, Potsdam, (the ‘Bridge of Spies’), Tempelhof Airport, and the German Resistance Memorial Centre.
