Underground guided tours by Berliner Unterwelten e. V.

The underworlds Museum offers regular tours to get to know the history of Berlin in an unusual manner. The tours guide through secret bunker constructions and traffic facilities, trough rooms full of authentic history. The mayor tours are in the surrounding of the Gesundbrunnencenter but there are lots of tours farther in other subterranean places.

The main aspects of these tours refers to bomb war, anti aircraft, records like wartime junk and old archaeological finds of government quarters. You can choose between different tours und can choose your favourite and most important topic, which then will be treated in the selected tour.

Now I give a short summery about the tours which I separate in four parts:

1. Dark Worlds: The tour guides through the subway station of the Gesundbrunnencenter and behind the walls you will see the bunker construction. Thematic priority is bomb war and anti aircraft. The tour is offered all the year. Here you get to know about war funds of the second war.

2. Flak Towers: Here visitors are shown two of seven floors of the bunker construction, only remains of the Flak Tower and the landscape of the underground. It is located at the north side of the Volkspark Humboldthein. This tour takes place only from April until October because in the winter time the bats live here.

3. Subway stations, bunker and Cold War (conflict between east and west): In this tour you get to know more about the separation of Germany. You feel like the separation is converted in the underground of the world (closed subway stations, closed sewer tunnels). The see the atom aircraft bunker of the year 1977, which is located in the subways station Pankstraße. Today it is still furnished und still working and shows how unimaginable it is that over 3300 persons get protection in a comparative small room.

4. Fascination tube mail: The smallest subway of Berlin- as its name implies, shows the advanced tube mail system, which is located down under. The remains of these constructions are explained.

The tours last approximately 90 minutes. More information you get to know under the official website: http://berliner-unterwelten.de
