Guided Story

Can you imagine a city transformed entirely by the vision of a single regime? That's what 'Mythos Germania' explores. Take a look at the models here. These were plans for a new capital of the German Reich, so grand they were never built. Picture the colossal Great Hall and the expansive avenues. These weren't just architectural dreams; they were symbols of power and control. As you wander through, remember that these plans were as much about ideology as they were about buildings. Turn around, and you might catch a glimpse of the Berliner Unterwelten Museum nearby, another place where Berlin's layered history unfolds. Visiting here is like stepping into an alternate Berlin—a city that, thankfully, never came to be.
