About Berliner Zentrum Industriekultur
Die Berliner Stadtgeschichte aus einer neuen Perspektive entdecken, dazu laden die fünf vom Berliner Zentrum Industriekultur (bzi) geplanten Radrouten ein. Die Themenroute „Warmes Licht und kühles Bier“ macht den Auftakt. Nach und nach folgen weitere Routen, die zu Spuren und Zeugnissen der industriekulturell geprägten Stadtlandschaft führen. Berlin ist wie keine andere europäische Metropole geprägt durch die Entwicklung von Technik und Industrie, von den Anfängen der Industriellen Revolution in Preußen bis zum Niedergang der „Elektropolis“ nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Gewerbehöfe, Umspannwerke und Industrieareale, mittlerweile vielfach anderweitig genutzt, prägen das besondere Berliner Flair.
