City walks

At least once a month, we invite you to take part in public city walks — or you can book an exclusive walk for your group.

Allgemeine Informationen

Film history was written in Berlin. At the beginning of the 20th century, numerous studios were built here. To this day, the city continues to shape national and international filmmaking. Since the fall of the Wall, Berlin has been a popular film metropolis that not only stars but also serves as a backdrop for cities such as Warsaw, London, and New York. Our city walks take you to places of early film and cinematic history, show you legendary filming locations and offer insights into the city’s modern-day film industry. 
 
We offer tours around Alexanderplatz, between Potsdamer Platz and Brandenburg Gate, through Prenzlauer Berg, around Kurfürstendamm and in the vicinity of our new location, the E-Werk in Berlin-Mitte. You can find more information about our offer below.

Public city walks

Our city walks are listed exclusively on the German version of this page.
