20 activitati in Munich, GERMANY

Strolling through the elegant and prosperous streets of Munich today it’s almost impossible to believe that the seed of the greatest crime of all time was sown in the beer halls of the city. But as this informative tour reveals, there can be no escaping that Munich was the cradle of the Third Reich, or the ‘Capital of the Movement’ as Hitler proclaimed. Many of the first monumental Nazi structures were built in Munich and despite the ravages of war and the subsequent denazification, which saw most of the Nazi legacy destroyed, the city still has a number of significant reminders of the era such as the Führerbau, the Hofbräuhaus and Feldherrnhalle, the Palace of Justice, the Haus der Kunst and Ludwig Maximilian University. The Führerbau in the Briener Strasse was where Hitler had his office (today a musical college rehearsal room) and where the notorious Munich Agreement promising ‘peace in our time’ was signed. It was from here that the Nazis plotted their takeover of Germany. Visit the Palace of Justice, where Nazi opponents such as pacifist siblings Hans and Sophie Scholl were tried, and admire the grandiose Haus der Kunst gallery, built by the Nazis on reaching power to display the finest in German art and contrast it with the concurrent Degenerate Art exhibition. Explore the Ludwig Maximilian University, where during the Scholls’ White Rose movement disseminated anti-Nazi leaflets before being caught and executed. See also the bullet-scarred walls known as the Wounds of Remembering, a haunting reminder of the past.

Visit the Dachau Concentration Camp Memorial Site, a haunting reminder of the nightmare Europe became during the Second World War. A short drive from Munich, the picturesque town of Dachau, famed for its canals, parks and leafy streets, was chosen by the Nazis as the location for their first concentration camp. Today, the camp is open to the public as an emblem to the power of memory, with the hope that by remembering the terrible events that occurred there, they shall not happen again. Not long after Hitler had risen to power, Heinrich Himmler opened Dachau as a political prisoner camp. With time, it would become a role model for other Nazi concentration camps and a ‘school of violence’ for the ruthless SS. With the coming of the Second World War and Hitler’s genocidal agenda, it would also be used for the imprisonment of Jews. The camp saw more than 200,000 prisoners during its 12 years in operation with more than 30,000 killed. With this tour, pay your respects to the victims and learn more about the most harrowing event in history, thanks to the well-versed guides that will accompany you during the visit.

Highlights - Come to know just why Hard Rock Cafe finds itself in over 50 countries - Step foot inside a dining experience with a difference as you set your eyes over exclusive rock memorabilia - Choose from many menus and pick what suits your taste buds the best Like all great revolutions, the Hard Rock Cafe wasn’t meant to succeed. It was 1971 and as the Swinging Sixties had given way to the Super Seventies, fashions and tastes were changing. Two hungry young Americans were in London and couldn’t find a decent place to eat a decent burger… so they opened up a joint in the English capital. Their landlord didn’t think it would last and only gave them a six-month lease. Four decades later, there are almost 200 Hard Rock Cafes in more than 50 countries worldwide. The first T-shirt hit the streets in ‘74 and the first piece of memorabilia came, fittingly, by chance in ‘79 when Eric Clapton asked to hang his Lead II Fender guitar over his favourite bar stool and thus marked it as his spot. Today, the rock 'n' roll collection has more than 74,000 pieces and is the largest of its kind. By 1982, the Hard Rock Cafe had gone global and the rest, as they say, is history (that’s still being written).
