Go on a queer city stroll
Forget your standard city tours, this month try a queer city tour. The queer tour explains why Berlin became a magnet for the LGBTQi+ community and takes you on a stroll through time. Hear about the city’s “gayborhood“ in the 20s, during World War II, the legendary 90s and how the modern day LGBTQi+ community thrives.
