Öffentliche Führung zur Geschichte der KW: KW, a hike mit Raoul Zöllner

In the organizer's words:

A tour through the streets into KW's past.

In German
Meeting point: KW inner courtyard

Registration via Museumsdienst Berlin

Participation is free of charge. Limited number of participants.

In cooperation with the Museumsdienst Berlin.

KW Institute for Contemporary Art was founded in the early 1990s in a former margarine factory. Its history is inextricably linked to that of its neighborhood, the surrounding streets and its buildings.

In order to understand KW's historical entanglements, we embark on a walk to boarded-up buildings, underground car parks, distant domes above burial chambers, communist clubhouses and the inner courtyard of a collector who lives in a former nationalized factory. The view of a distant skyscraper overshadowing the relics of the Soviet era on Alexanderplatz marks the end of our tour through the neighboring streets of KW.
