Before the Nazis came to power in 1933, around 160,000 Jews lived in Berlin, of which only 8,000 survived liberation. There was also a lively Jewish life in the Prenzlauer Berg district, but this was not the neighborhood of upper-class Jews.
Butchers, bakers and costume makers lived here, for example. Many of the survivors lived underground for years; a life full of fear, despair and deprivation.
The tour begins at the Immanuel Church. Here the courageous and committed pastor Johannes Schwartzkopff helped fellow Jews during the Nazi era. The well-known entertainer Hans Rosenthal grew up nearby and was able to survive the period of persecution hidden in a garden shed. On the occasion of his 100th birthday, this tour commemorates him and other Jewish fates.
