Show Notes

So I might be a little bit biased as a tour guide that lives here, but Berlin has a pretty incredible story.


In this first episode of The History Buff (now The Ministry of History), you will be taken through Berlin's tumultuous history from when it was the Prussian and then Imperial German capital, through the good times of the Golden Twenties, over the ruins of the Nazi capital, tracing the Wall that divided Berlin for 28 years to finish up at the newly unified Berlin at the end of the twentieth century.
