Berlin's squatting scene wasn't a fringe curiosity — at its peak in the 1980s, it was a defining feature of entire neighborhoods, particularly in Kreuzberg, where rent-controlled, undervalued housing near the Wall sat empty and ripe for occupation by artists, punks, and anarchists shut out of the formal housing market.
Some of that DIY spirit never really left. Jacob, a local guide who runs several themed walks across the city, leads this route through galleries and artistic communities that grew directly out of that squatting culture — spaces that are often still artist-run, still a little rough around the edges, and still largely unknown to anyone following a standard city-tour itinerary.
This is a distinct route from Jacob's history-focused tours — the emphasis here is on seeing contemporary alternative Berlin up close, in spaces most travelers never find on their own, rather than walking through a chronological historical narrative.
