# Guided Walking Tour around Tempelhof and the Schultheiss Malt House

Meet Time: 18:20
Meet Place: Tempelhof S-Bahn Station

Join me on an evening historical walk through one of Berlin's most fascinating industrial districts: Tempelhof.

The plan: We'll grab a Wegbier and explore the industrial heritage of Tempelhof, following the story of beer, teltow canal, architecture and mass production. Our focus will be the impressive former Schultheiss malt house, one of the hidden giants of Berlin's brewing history.

We'll explore one of Berlin's big industrial complexes, walk round some beautiful inter-war estates and visit Tempelhofer Hafen.
Beer together in the sunshine at the end.

The growth of Schultheiss was closely connected to Berlin's expanding population, new transport networks and the development of modern industrial production.
The former Schultheiss malt house in Tempelhof tells a fascinating story of this era. Built on a huge scale, it processed the malt needed for one of Berlin's most famous beers and formed part of a wider industrial landscape of warehouses, railways, canals and factories.

Alongside it, Tempelhof became home to some of the city's most ambitious engineering projects, including the famous Ullsteinhaus and the nearby harbour.

If you like history, want to discover more about Berlin beyond the usual stories of the Nazis and the Cold War, and would like to take part in a sociable evening of exploration and discussion, come along.

I am an accredited tour guide in Berlin, specialising in telling stories about the city's industrial heritage. I charge a small fee of โ‚ฌ5 to organise the tour and share my knowledge.
