A queer king, a gay mayor, Marlene Dietrich in Blue Angel, David Bowie in the ‘70s, Audre Lorde in the ‘80s: Berlin has long been a magnet for LGBTIQ icons and allies.
From the wild days of the 1920s and the dark days of persecution under the Nazis through to the Cold War. Hear about the club scene of the 90s, the unlikely queer icon Frederick the Great, and the life of the openly gay Nazi, Ernst Röhm. Explore world-famous, Schöneberg, once the central district of the sapphic Berlin, home of philosopher and war journalist Erika Mann, chronicled by painter Otto Dix and writer Christopher Isherwood.
Discuss the queer community of Berlin and all the communities it intersects with by visiting Kreuzberg, where as far back as the 1600's, many waves of LGBTIQ and immigrant diasporas have come to determine "nobody flees without a reason".
On this tour we accept anyone that considers themselves LGBTIQ, an ally, or who’s just plain interested. Everyone is welcome!

Berlin’s Must-See History Sites Private Black Van Half-Day Tour
Duration: 4 hours
After meeting at your hotel this private Berlin tour starts at the majestic Reichstag building, which has long stood at the centre of German history.
From there, explore the sprawling Pariser Platz and the famous Brandenburg Gate — once a symbol of German division, now a national symbol of peace and unity.
Next, head to the emotional Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe before walking past the almost-forgotten, unmarked site of Hitler’s bunker.
Follow along a preserved section of the Wall to reach the Topography of Terror museum. No visit to Berlin is complete without a visit to Checkpoint Charlie, of course — the best-known crossing point between East and West Berlin during the Cold War.
You’ll then head over to the Gendarmenmarkt, the most beautiful square in Berlin, and along Bebelplatz, past the Nazi book burning memorial and the restored State Opera.
Finally finish up at Museum Island, one of the most important museum sites in Europe.
