Berlin by Foot: Schöneberg Uncovered – Riots, Raves, and Revolutions

On April 26, tour guide Ryan Balmer will lead a walking tour about the surprising history of Schöneberg.

Schöneberg: 100 Years of Riots, Raves and Revolutionaries” Beyond the kaffe and kuchen veneer of contemporary Schöneberg lies over a century of counter-cultural activity, from its emergence as a center of Weimar Era queer liberation through its post-war rebirth as a magnet for creative minds from all across the globe.

We’ll explore the history of renegade artists, occult charlatans and revolutionary squatters in one of the most vibrant districts in the city’s history.

Our tour will be meeting behing Wittenbergplatz, at the fountain south of the station, Wittenbergplatz 1, 10789 Berlin. We will meet at 13:00 and leave by 13:15.

The tour will end two hours later near Eisenacherstraße. We will not be using public transportation — the tour will be entirely outside.
