We meet at Kotti, in the heart of vibrant Kreuzberg. After a brief introduction, you will gain insight into the history and lifestyle of this unique part of Berlin. Learn how Kreuzberg developed in the 19th century as a typical working-class district.
Explore Oranienstraße and imagine life in the past, when many people didn’t rent a whole apartment but only an 8-hour stay on a mattress. Hear about the working-class heritage, the left-wing scene, and the history of demonstrations.
Visit historic places such as SO36, the square of the May Day demonstrations, and hear stories about escape attempts from East Germany. Recall the visit of Martin Luther King in 1964 and get to know Berlin’s “Jack the Ripper.”
Between stories, you will enjoy selected snacks from the neighborhood – from original Berlin recipes to crossover creations and international delicacies. This variety reflects Kreuzberg’s multicultural spirit.
