After two weeks without seeing any Stolpersteine (though admittedly I spent the best part of seven days out of the country) it seemed like I couldn’t go anywhere without seeing them this week. I have added photos of all the Stolpersteine I saw to the gallery here. I think that some of them may even […]

ALIAS: Busy in Berlin
Friday seems to be the day for discovering great (fresh) street art in Berlin. On Good Friday it was AliCé and the Friday just gone – ALIAS. I spotted one of these pieces from the tram window as I was heading out for a wander on Friday morning so on the way home I got […]

My first post about Stolpersteine gives more background about these […]

As I’ve always wanted to see inside the Stadtbad I made sure to go to this exhibition before the GLS Language school renovates the building. The doors were open in the afternoon […]

At that time I didn’t realise that the building […]
Volkspark Friedrichshain

Stolpersteine 46 & 47

My first post about Stolpersteine gives more background about these memorials to […]
