We begin your digital exploration beneath the ornate golden domes of the New Synagogue – formerly the largest Jewish place of worship in Germany.
Leaving the Synagogue, we head via Berlin's oldest Jewish Cemetery (resting place of Moses Mendelssohn) and Sophienstraße to Haus Schwarzenberg – a hub for contemporary counterculture and graffiti in the city center.
Next we see where brushmaker Otto Weidt put his life on the line to shelter his Jewish workers from deportation at the hands of the SS and Gestapo.
We end the tour by exploring the hidden courtyard complex of the stunning, Art Nouveau Hackeschen Höfe buildings.
