Berlin: Resisting the Holocaust — Berlin's Hidden Heroes｜Germany

Most people know the broad facts of the Holocaust. What they don't know is what it felt like to live through it — or what it took to resist it.

This expert-led walking tour explores Berlin's former Jewish quarter, tracing the destruction of a community and the stories of the individuals who chose to fight back.

We cover the history of Jewish life in Berlin before the Nazi period, the escalating persecution from 1933 to the Final Solution, and the individuals who risked everything to defy it — Otto Weidt, who protected his blind and deaf Jewish workers from the Gestapo; the women of Rosenstrasse, who stood outside a building for seven days until their Jewish husbands were released; and Wilhelm Krützfeld, the police officer who refused orders and saved the New Synagogue on the night of Kristallnacht.

The tour ends at Friedrichstrasse station — at the Trains to Life, Trains to Death memorial, where the story of the Kindertransport is set against the reality of the deportation trains that used the same platform.
