Auf den Spuren der Geschichte. Führung zur Geschichte des Ortes

The site of today's Humboldt Forum has a long and eventful history: Hohenzollern residence, parade ground, Palace of the Republic and large meadow - it has always been a location of particular political significance in the middle of Berlin and also one of artistic expression. What themes and objects still remind us of the past and the various historical events? And what do they say about the history of the place? The overview tour encourages visitors to discuss images of history and their impact in the present. Using selected stations and objects, it offers an insight into the history of the site from the time of the electors, kings and emperors to the debate about the demolition of the Palace of the Republic and illustrates the diverse use of the site in different periods.
