Humboldthöhe

Two anti-aircraft towers were built in Volkspark Humboldthain at the start of the war. One was partly blown up afterwards and the wreckage buried under war rubble, which is why the wooded hill you climb is a bunker with a hill poured over it. Parts of the tower below were cleared out by Berliner Unterwelten, who run tours inside.
