Full description

The Reichstag has seen fire, war, division and a remarkable rebirth as the seat of the German parliament. This guided tour starts outside, walking through the modern Government District around the Chancellery and the Spree, where your guide explains how Berlin’s political heart was rebuilt after reunification.

The visit continues up to the roof terrace and Norman Foster’s glass dome, where a spiral ramp leads to the top and the mirrored cone reflects light into the chamber below. Access to the dome requires registration in advance, which we handle when you book.
