# Industry and Waterways of Moabit **Theme:** Cycle Loop + History + Architecture + Beer Garden **Time:** 14:00 **Start:** Deutsches Technikmuseum **Distance:** 30 km **Suggested contribution:** €5 This ride tells the story of the ideas, inventions and elegant architecture that transformed Berlin into one of the world's leading scientific and industrial capitals around 1900. We'll cycle through the districts of Kreuzberg, Tiergarten, Moabit, Charlottenburg and Mitte, discovering power stations, research institutes, engineering landmarks, beautiful public buildings and some of Berlin's finest examples of industrial architecture. We'll finish with a beer together by the water. ## The Tour We will follow, more or less, the **"Innovation und Eleganz"** Industrial Heritage Cycle Route, beginning at the Deutsches Technikmuseum before making our way through some of Berlin's former industrial neighbourhoods. We'll visit the pioneering **Kraftwerk Moabit**, the famous **AEG Turbine Factory** designed by Peter Behrens, admire the elegant buildings of **Charlottenburg**. We'll also pass the famous **KPM Porcelain Manufactory**. We'll finish with a well-earned beer together beside the Spree. I am an accredited tour guide in Berlin, specialising in telling stories about the city's industrial heritage. I ask for a contribution of **€5** to help organise the tour and share my knowledge. **Disclaimer:** Please note that all participants attend as group members, not as customers, and are responsible for their own safety. Please read the group description in full for an explanation of the terms and liabilities. ## The Cycling This is a gentle-paced sightseeing ride rather than a sporting event. 🚲 We'll cover around **25 kilometres**, with plenty of stops for stories, photographs and discussion. Anyone with a reasonable bicycle and experience cycling around Berlin should be comfortable on this route. ## What to Bring 🚲 Spare inner tube suitable for your bike 💶 Cash for drinks or snacks 🌧️ Waterproofs (just in case!) ☀️ Suncream 🥪 Water and snacks 😊 Curiosity and a sense of adventure ## Highlights ⚡ Discover how Berlin became one of the world's great centres of science, engineering and innovation 🏭 Visit the legendary AEG Turbine Factory, often described as the birthplace of modern industrial architecture 🔬 Learn how Berlin's scientists, engineers and inventors transformed everyday life around the globe 🏛️ Explore the beautiful campuses of Berlin's pioneering research institutions and universities 💡 See the pioneering Kraftwerk Moabit and discover how electricity changed the modern city 🚰 Hear the remarkable story of Berlin's revolutionary sewer and sanitation system, which became a model for cities worldwide 🏺 Visit the Royal Porcelain Manufactory (KPM) and discover why Berlin porcelain became famous across Europe 🚲 Ride through elegant boulevards, hidden industrial streets and historic waterways linking Berlin's scientific and industrial past 📸 Fantastic photography opportunities combining industrial heritage with some of Berlin's finest architecture 🍺 Finish with a relaxed drink beside the Spree. I estimate the ride will take around **three hours**, including plenty of stops. It should make for a fun Saturday afternoon exploring one of Berlin's most beautiful industrial heritage routes. Hope to see you there! **Simon**

Lento.cc #1 — Lost in Brandenburg Bikepacking Weekend

Lento.cc #1 — Lost in Brandenburg Bikepacking Weekend

Fri, Aug 14, 4:00 PM
From Lento.cc

Rescheduled to August 14! Hola! I’m looking for a few people who’d be up for a 2 & 1/2 day bikepacking adventure from Friday (after work) to Sunday. The plan: 🌲 Explore [Lost-in-Brandenburg Loop](https://bikepacking.com/routes/lost-in-brandenburg-loop/) (from Berlin around Brandenburg and back - find the komoot link below) 🚴 Gravel, forests, lakes & quiet roads ⛺ Camp along the way ☕ Take it at a nice pace, enjoy the ride and the company Around 260 km over 3 days, so a bit of a challenge but totally doable with some cycling experience. The route mixes gravel, sandy forest tracks and beautiful Brandenburg landscapes. No racing, no pressure — just people who want to explore, ride and have a good weekend outside Berlin. We can adapt the route together, find nice camping spots, and make it our own :))) Let me know if you’re interested!
