Description
The Scheunenviertel has changed beyond recognition since 1989 — some of what it was is still hiding in plain sight. This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Berlin's Scheunenviertel on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time. • Follow clues to the Hackesche Höfe, Alte Nationalgalerie, and Humboldt Forum — three landmarks that span Art Nouveau courtyards, neoclassical museum temples, and a rebuilt royal palace • Start whenever suits you and move entirely at your own pace — no time limit, no pressure • Perfect for friend groups, families, and curious travellers; photo challenges reveal the details most people walk straight past Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app. Around 2 hours - any group size. Berlin has layers that even Berliners miss — your phone has the first one.
