Berlin’s history is not only formed by the souvereigns and their ruling performance, the inhabitants of all walks of life and with them the protest from below form part of it.
The broad history of rebellion and resistance in Berlin ranges from the “Berliner Unwillen” in the 15th century, the so called revolution of 1848, the occurrences of the German Revolution of 1918–19, the uprising in East Berlin on the 17th of June 1953, the Protests of 1968 and the so called peaceful revolution until our present.
With this walk through the city center we follow the tracks of the history of protest in Berlin.
