Architecture Tour of Berlin - with an Architect!
Discover Berlin’s history by learning how to read and understand its buildings on a guided, three-hour Understand Berlin through architecture, not just dates and landmarks. Many tours use buildings as a backdrop, this tour treats them as historical evidence.
As an architect, I (Natalie) focus on how urban planning, housing, materials, and spatial decisions reflect political ideas, social priorities, and moments of rupture in Berlin’s history.
Rather than moving quickly between highlights, the tour slows down to ask why the city looks the way it does, and what those choices meant for the people who lived here.
By focusing on the built environment, the tour offers a clearer, more grounded way of understanding the city. Through the built environment, the tour connects politics and history to everyday life.

Queer Berlin Tour: Birthplace of LGTBQ Movements
Berlin may rightly be called the birthplace of today’s LGBTQ+ movements. Karl Heinrich Ulrichs, pioneer of the modern Gay Rights Movement, distributed his essays on male-male love as early as 1862. He cleared the path for the world’s first gay magazine, Der Eigene (The Self-Owning), which came out of Berlin in 1897. No wonder that, by the 1920s, a liberal attitude made interwar Weimar Berlin an international magnet for creative individuals, including W.H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood, who authored the novel, Goodbye to Berlin (on which the musical Cabaret is based). In such an dynamic atmosphere, the Institute for Sexual Science was founded by Magnus Hirschfeld, who initiated the first campaign to abolish the legal persecution of homosexuals. This 3-house tour takes you to sites that illuminate Berlin’s many queer trailblazers, while you stroll through Schöneberg, discovering the world’s first gay ghetto.
