COLD WAR &  WALL TOUR

Pedal through a Berlin once split in two, where streets, buildings, and even families were separated by both a physical and ideological wall.

On the Cold War and Wall Tour, cycle through the city’s Cold War landmarks and explore the remnants of the Berlin Wall. As you ride, you’ll uncover the traces of a city divided by the forces of the Cold War, where the East, under the control of the GDR government and its powerful Stasi secret police, was a place of surveillance, fear, and rigid control. At the same time, West Berlin stood as an isolated, politically aware "island" surrounded by the Wall, representing freedom and defiance in the heart of a divided Europe.
For 28 years, the Wall not only separated families and friends, but also shaped daily life in Berlin. This was a time when escape attempts, often desperate and dangerous, became symbols of the longing for freedom.
It’s a journey through the spaces where history unfolded, offering you a glimpse of how the past has shaped Berlin’s vibrant, unified present today.​​​​​​​​​​​​
