The Berlin Wall and the Death Strip
- The City That Refuses to Forget: A sober walk through the memorial quarter of Mitte, where Berlin chose to keep the evidence of its darkest history in plain sight rather than pave it over.
- The City That Was Cut in Two: For twenty-eight years a wall ran through the middle of a living city, and this walk traces its line through the reunited centre of Berlin, where the scar was kept visible on purpose.
