JEWISH BERLIN
Your Berlin experience
starts with a panoramic tour with the major highlights
such as the historical city center,
the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag.
The tour becomes more Jewish related when we drive
through the old Jewish quarter around
the New Synagogue, a contrast
of the neoclassical Prussian splendor of the 19th-century.
If desired the driver – guide can stop at
the Synagogue for an inside visit.

Visit the new Holocaust Memorial, designed by Peter
Eisenmann, before arriving at the Potsdamer
Platz that
was left in ruins by Allied bombing after WW II and
flattened with the Berlin Wall. Enjoy a short walk
through this completely new built center before proceeding
to the Jewish Museum. The life and history of Germany’s
Jews from the Middle Ages through the present is shown
in the Jewish Museum, an architectural master piece
by American architect Daniel Libeskind. Time for independent
exploration will be provided.
