Begin your journey at Kotti, a bustling square known for its diversity and lively nightlife. The guide, equipped with insider knowledge, will lead you through Kreuzberg’s most important places. You’ll see the historic residential blocks, once containing around 2,000 people. In the present, the blocks are mostly renovated. They are home to people from all backgrounds, income levels, and religions, adding a unique charm to the area. The tour ends at Gräfekiez, a charming neighborhood known for its cozy atmosphere, street art, and a variety of cafes, shops, and boutiques.

At every corner of Kreuzberg streets, you’ll find stories, sometimes funny, sometimes hair-raising. Get to know some of the most exciting insider tales, from ‘The Butcher of the Silesian Gate’, a mafia-like wrestling association, and scandalous construction projects to the first beauty surgery and the legendary “Kreuzberg mixture”. In between, you will be dropping in hand-picked restaurants to sample local and international delicacies. After the tour, you can further explore Kreuzberg’s culinary scene at Gräfekiez.
