Walking Tour: The November Revolution of 1918\/1919 in Berlin

Almost 103 years ago, an insurrection took place in Berlin. With the general strike of November 9, 1918, workers toppled the Kaiser and ended the First World War.
Thus began the November Revolution. Millions of people took to the streets to fight for an end to capitalism. But the Social Democratic Party allied with the imperial military to drown the revolution in blood.
A century after the uprising, we will visit the spots where Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Liebknecht, Richard Müller, and countless proletarians in the German capital changed the history of the world.
If you would like to attend a tour, please send an e-mail with your name and the date of the tour to: [email protected]. You will get a confirmation e-mail within one day. This is to make sure we have enough people (at least 5) but also not too many (no more than 25) for a tour to take place.
We will be meeting at Potsdamer Platz, in front of Espresso House at Potsdamer Platz 10, next to the exit to the U2 subway station. We will meet at 17:30 and leave by 17:40. We will not be using public transportation — the tour is completely outside. The tour will end two hours later near Hallesches Tor.
Suggested donation is 10 euros per person, but any contribution is appreciated and none is required.
We ask that you only come if you're fully vaccinated. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail: [email protected]
