.The tour starts at Potsdam Central Station and first leads to the Old Market, the historic city center. As a result of the great destruction in the Second World War, a lot was reconstructed here - some with a historical appearance, others with a modern appearance. On Potsdam's largest town square, a Soviet war cemetery with hundreds of graves commemorates
the last fighting in spring 1945.A few months later, the Allied victors' conference took place in Potsdam in the summer of 1945. The city became one of the most important Soviet bases in Germany, with countless facilities and thousands of Soviet military personnel who shaped the streetscape for almost 50 years. The tour takes you through Soviet Potsdam, to one of the most important secret service sites of the Soviets and finally to the world-famous spy bridge, one of the most famous border crossings between East and West. It was here that agents were exchanged between the Soviet KGB and the American CIA during the Cold War
