The largest memorial to Berlin's destruction in the Second World War lies hidden from view: an artificial mountain range of rubble. The tour sheds light on the history of the rubble mountains, their design and the role of the "rubble women". The Memorabilia audio walk makes this past audible - with poems, sound collages and radio play scenes.
