Broken Utopias: The Many Lives of Stalinallee

This street at the heart of eastern Berlin has had three names. Stalinallee, once the prestige boulevard of socialist East Berlin, was built up from the ashes of WWII in the 1950s. On this tour, we will discover how socialist ideology shaped life from architecture and surveillance to simple everyday activities. Beyond the bombastic facade, this street has been the stage for violent street fighting, demonstrations and funeral marches. We will ask the question what it meant to live well for those who built this street and the generations after. This tour doesn´t end with the collapse of the Berlin Wall but follows it into the 21st century and the stories of those Berliners still living there.
This tour is in English and takes place outside.
Meet U Frankfurter Tor, corner of Karl-Marx-Allee/Warschauer Str.
