Jewish Heritage & Memory - Half Day Walking Tour in Berlin

Join me for an immersive journey through Berlin's rich Jewish history. Together, we'll discover the fascinating story of the community's re-establishment in the second half of the 17th century, including the transformative era of Moses Mendelssohn. As for myself, beyond my personal fascination with Jewish wars, both today and in the 19th century, I also academically study history that has a relevant connection to these matters. If you'd like dive further into our Jewish Heritage, contact me so I could customize this tour to include additional sites of special historical significance, tailored to your interests, such as: -The museum at the New Synagogue (I'm an official guide there & would gladly guide you). -The Kindertransport Memorial at Friedrichstraße Station (commemorating the rescue of Jewish children) -Grunewald Deportation Memorial (honoring the memory of Berlin's deported Jewish community).
