Flaktower

In September 1940 Hitler ordered the construction of undestroyable flaktowers to protect Berlin against allied bombers. They were built in Tiergarten, in Friedrichshain and in the people's park Humboldthain in the district of Gesundbrunnen.
Inside the towers there were bunkers for about 15.000 civilians.
After the war, the undestroyable towers were demolished by the allied forces.
The Humboldthain tower partially survived and has been reconstructed and is now a major point of interest in the park.
You can book guided tours to explore the inside of the towers and bunkers. >>> Information

How to get there:
