yes, this still many wheels why bennett took took to freedom. we've got some hot tips for your bucket list, the magic corner chat spot and some great culture memorial w. travel off we go, the berlin, capital fine, but fictitious. and really, we were told to be careful look around if we, whatever, because we had it all from the cold war to today. many spice stories began and ended here. i'm so i want to flush my passport down the train toilet.

so we never felt like james bond root feelings, spine hot spots past and present until only a small part of the truth. the college of the city holds even more of the truth told in countless spine movies the, the wisdom and eastern secret service is waged. a clash of titans info named were opposing systems collided. the front line of the cold for the may for tegan is the cold war, live door to door, invalid fine, and i'm just following up here starting in think and so get this up. you'll need

a visa one, toyota. i believe donald is these ends up soon. this ties into the gets us funded by spies was set to look on every corner in berlin from off to world war 2, until the full of the building roll in 1999 1000000000 at the center of the secret services. why the in 1945 world war 2 was over and the city lay in ruins. germany had lost the wall is it stops at the allies, britain, france. and the us along with russia, had freed the city from nazi room. the, the pump stem agreement divided building into 4 sectors, one each for the victors. but hostilities soon followed. the coal, who had been gone east fairly and was on the soviet rule while the allies governed,

the remaining 3 sectors. in 1949 to germany's were formed the federal republic, which would join nato in 1955 and the democratic republic, which would join the warsaw pact the saying here. the bench on costco has been researching berlin and its find scripted cage and his co authors, the book capital of spice. and the break comes around to 1947 when it was obvious that the nation so going in different directions for berlin. wisdom, east germany was the beginning of the code forward and that's a point also where the intelligence collection started to get more intense waste. the land was now in ireland, surrounded by socialists, east germany, eastern and wisdom pals crushed the borders that they represent. tips were allowed to move freely between sectors,

the testing for spies. berlin was the only city where this situation could be seen. and obviously this geo political situation offered a lot of possibilities for all 4 entities and services. and therefore, the i would say building is the capital of the code for the journey through secret building in search of spies, the dock side of the global city. we meet for them a spies with incredible stories. we were told to be careful look around. but there was no special training now to recognize that you were to the tongue food came into the door to spite of spelling fixed. i know more important in 1961. the cold war hates up dramatically east germany built

a wall between east and west berlin. as light is eastern dimension peace, you'll find the item the most. i found it to be less the best customer when buying berlin was split into an east germany or guns to shoot any one trying to flee friedrich strauss. so was one of the few border crossings. it's where american spine couple, jeffrey and beatrice ship. it's crossed between west and east berlin to meet with members of the ministry of state security, extremities, intelligent service, as well as the styles in the country secret police. for years they were the country's top spies. that high profile target was the chancellor of the federal republic of germany. the of the department won a they were specialized in getting information from the chancellor's office. kipling this concept. we were shots, we went train the spines and so we had, we knew we had a lot of work in

a day, which is fine on the highest political figure in the country, making them some of the most dangerous agents of the postwar period. the form of frederick strauss a check point between east and west. berlin was a place of surveillance and the espionage. the stalls. a monitor who left the country and who met with their eyes and ears, were almost everywhere. the set at the station, the same from a spice film, 2 small american benjamin, the critics association was a hot spot for berlin's by network. and there was 5 gateways in both directions.

wanna invited this to the the strategy was formed in 1950 and conducted for an espionage wall monitoring east germans as well. it could not dissidence and operate its own prisons. a line in essence, by y'all nearly 3000 people were hired for the m. s. s. and the 1st 2 years alone in the state on business, and that grew steadily until 1989 of the honda buys. the sponsor's brutality remains a source of cinematic inspiration to this day, i think flew a comedic series. the board is on slapstick. send the name loud enough to own the slender sandwiches. the

the on stand the stones, he will head close to didn't know monstrosity in east berlin. the museum opened to everyone now stands with secret down. so it was once collected thousands of files restored here, including the reports to ship. it says delivered from the chancellor's office as well as other information from the various sources the my job was to take these reports, which were evaluations and all the shades of grey within the government. i was the one who photographed everything. and then i took the night train boss, so berlin jumped on the train when in the toilet. i had to stand on the cloak and pulled down the ceiling and put the box in there. and then i went home. the ship it

says, would never expose during the active cause the years, but all the agents would, over and over again on both sides the, the kleenex, a bridge separates west berlin and pottstown, then a part of east germany. the bridge became the symbol of agent exchanges. and not time went to scene, and steven spielberg's film shows the cold and ruthlessness of a tough business. open the gate, the rudolf is there not the possibility that my people are going to shoot me? yeah. you're not worried. would it help the if you ended up okay, this like the cleaning cut bridge is probably the most exaggerated spite location number landlord and then the skip tubbs safely self the unique up. what can do with the hi, my spies were only exchanged there 3 times. in 1962,

85 and 86. it was still important in the context of berlin, the because it was used by vehicles for allied military emissions between west berlin and a part of the on the need. him is your opinion of taking a couple of the tales with once agents for the soviet k g p, who also looked into the land and this quote yacht. they were trained in the city. my wife has been fighting for 10 years to be assigned to sleep agents in the us. the p. o and grants. are you mind kitchen is buying is not generally recognized as an occupation of that. or you can't just apply the, the adventure. the excitement arose from traveling through 5 countries in 14 days, at some time under 3 or 4 different names hasn't been able to see

a 15 and i did 15 years with a k g b. i never once held a gun in my hand and i see you smile. you want me to buy for it in a 100 and i'm to i once flushed my passport done the train toilet, then grabbed a new one, experience without the noise. and then what, then i had to check into a hotel and completely forgot my new name and vision knowledge didn't yet i just have a on a hill. and the wisdom outskirts of building is the appropriately titled, teufel, sped o devil's mountain. the americans, most important listening station was here alone in the forest and the hillside with berlin feasible in the distance. the sides was open to visiting its aging pooley that is still well secured. the deal is quite a one despite they could intercept radio signals here from far into poland. and

then that's why the stars the and the k g b took it very seriously. i'm no more than they were deadly able to install their own spies, their thoughts. i guess he went on some some. yeah, so you had up to 1200 people there and we shift 8 our system. and those people were listening to the conversations and of the washer. and they just listen to it. and this is a boring job, so that is not the life you would expect as a, because by boring in film, the 24, the style to submit the center of the honey charge. sushi we need, you know, want to know why you're there. does this you for and everybody knew this place was crawling with spies from all over the world. just this was the regular citizens didn't notice anything in their everyday lives,

become the marie and showed a chance of camp in west berlin its way east german rescue. cheese profess registered and housed but not always innocently. wisdom secret services like to see i a, in the british m, i 6, went to the marie and sold it to load the, the elbow, the all east german citizens who came to west berlin, had to 1st registering marie and failed to pay the moon and being questioned by the intelligence services from the 3 allied powers was part of the admission process. the scar to aim was to persuade people that often now they decide to leave east germany. they might, could work for west germany. the, the ship it says lived and spied in west berlin, but travelled regularly to the start as

a collective in east berlin. because the apartment was used to relate instructions and give them a place to have lunch and chess. harmless were not for the of the high profile spies that we've met for 13 years, always in that apartment. we weren't friends, but we worked well together. we became a team and developing our legend. so if we would ever, because we had it all clear, they gave me virtually fry on to the side, what information would be useful. and then i develop projects for my sources and sent them to get that. we got information about discussions within the government and especially differences whenever it covered and has a policy there always differences of opinion. and that was important to know while the ship it says with active agents, the tools have to wait in the us and they were to live under false identities. on

notice on the scene, we were out of cover vitamins in need with our job was to establish ourselves as us citizens, a case of war broke out between the soviet union and the us government. and the embassies close to go to the board traffic to your flows, and then we would have been supported the soviet agent network in the u. s. again, and it says they'll be up in your and i just bought a tie and it was really lonely. i had moved, we could only rely on each other. and the separation from our family was of course, extremely difficult onto an opportunity we left moscow not knowing for how long before last and most. com use me because if you got a secret tip at the west and most points of berlin on the former east german border time seems to have stood still got to a post once used by the nazis allied victor,

britain took the off to world war 2 it's now i'm going to treat aviation museum the right out for a spot here for the royal air force was stationed here from 1945 until the early ninety's, after the war, every occupying force had their own air field. that's the only kind of the americans had temple hoff gospel. the british had got to the front and the french later got take a human on the blueprint. and the british primarily did military recognizance english, which is commonly known as espionage shotwell, that's my lunch or frequent. i think the clips feel gnostic and the zip codes for the 150, like the air field was directly on the border between west berlin and east germany . the uh, but it's not only did the british spy on east germany, but on the out,

the air field was also monitored by east german border troops. and the stars the as well. the, the aunt of the stats, which are hard, got to almost to send a message joining back in time as it, the end of casablanca, had been feeling too. it wasn't, that the image is a deceptively similar hang afford guy. so if field is particularly intriguing, it's the only hang it that remains closed, the public, the, these are going to have the entire hanger was equipped with down truth booth with them, with the state of the art listening equipment of customer. i'll post. oh, certainly the americans and the british always shared. one of them i put to submit about they were always british air force personnel and the choices bug surveillance

station. and the cat and american personnel were also here in gato, auto of us and bush spies. more especially active with their response. they're also defective and double agents working both sides. george blake was one of the best known bush double agents. he's the key to the story of the mysterious tunnel. the. the allied museum is in the southern district of dunham. need the form of american ministry headquarters spied spence compared to with the c i analyzing sources and the brush planning a surveillance tunnel. the option to not be found on investment in the toner. kind of on that prep is ition, expands. nothing the on good top incompetent was thrown into the given one that

wasn't feeling good. splitting your from the elders and send tyler, you better off you and yet i'm going to the least up to on and mess about on the, on flash back uh up to that building on the play. so the toner in, i'm in the comments on the desktop zone in the allied museum now exhibits original pumps from the famous tunnel 6 meters just by a tunnel that was built in the early fifties. and then was in service for 11 months to tape the telephone conversation on the east german side and a telephone conversation associates, southern mucho administration, was doing the tunnel was problematic from the start pre k, g b, u, that the americans and the british read listening to this and this is because produced a double agent, george blake told the k g b, the americans and british,

i'm building this tunnel the can you be had a problem? because if the tunnel would have been found a, it's a fairly good time american, some british, but obviously aware of that as low as the the site. it's officially found the tunnel 6 months later ending operation gold. as it was not pictures of the spine tunnel went around the world and double agent, george blake would like to flee via east berlin to moscow, where he thought in 2020 the why do people like play called the ship? it's has become spies, power, money, ideals, east germany as an attempt at a venture society. this experiment in the east was a worthy experiment. after the whole of cost, but no one talks about where the experiment because it didn't work. and so okay,

we've accepted that. but we don't forget as jewish people, what happened in this country? here, we did see an attempt to keep this more cold and not let it escalate to the feeling checkpoint charlie in central but in the legendary crossing between west and east charles tourists now. but was then closely guarded by both sides. the more to they wanted to make sure that no one from an american or other western allied region entered east germany without registering. when they went in one of the for when they came out, we have found out right in front of the house called in the midst of the rice, a famous agent crossed the check point. his political mission was just as important as the sense of entering absolutely hostile territory, the solitude, the agent, the w,

around the great company, the check point, charlie is one of the millions best known landmarks. the 2 world history was written on november, the 9th. when the bullying will fail and the cold war ears seem to end beyond cutting, crumbled re uniting the city. but not all were pleased. many spies lost their jobs to political back rooms. they've reason to be the details who are in the us when they learn the rules at full and the k g. b agents

decided to return to the most cobra and be sure when we were back in moscow, they tried to persuade us to continue and then because our ease of drugs who will have disorder. and they said the situation had changed so much, or that if we were in berlin, they couldn't help us anymore. this, you know, into the system for you. we were afraid at 1st because the c i a and f b. i work, kidnapping people off the street here in berlin, in the early ninety's, putnam. those have been and we thought of something like that happened. nobody would help us. and that was it. no, this was where the of the spies also afraid off the phone of the will where they punished. you know, jeffrey said, i think we have to be prepared and we were prepared. it was okay for 4 years and then they came on the 4th of may. they rang the doorbell, so i wasn't even there. and jeffrey was arrest and our son was registered. they put me in the current river course, and our neighbor came over to be

a witness when the house was search. in the end, agent shifts was acquitted. the couple ended this bind careers without the criminal record. nobody was killed. we weren't killed either. so we went on with our lives the, the spine museum opened in central, in, in 2015, nearly 20 years later. it's now a most for spies funds and were counseling story as an espionage hotspots, with exhibitions on surveillance, and want to typing techniques, people scandals, historical tiles and reports on current cuz it cases the cold pool is also but agents continue to authorize his building again between the front of the new cold war, the 1st example,
