Berlin Footnote

My name is Agnes von Witzleben, self-declared cosmopolitan globalist, opportunistic archivist, and trespasser in other people's mythologies.

I collect the stories that never made it onto the official plaques: émigré ghosts in rent-controlled apartments, drowned villages beneath city parks, vanished cinemas, improvised micro-museums in side streets and shuttered shopfronts. Berlin Footnote is where we activate and deactivate portals, turning the city itself into a medium where coordinates become sentences, detours become editors, and each walk is an invitation to expose buried myths, contested histories, and small acts of resistance.

Our first walk, Charlottengrad and the Sunken Village of Lietzow, is now live as Transmission 1. The GPS-triggered walk version will expand through 2026 as the opening route in a series of Charlottenburg-based walks.

Berlin Footnote is not a neutral city tour. It is a guided dérive with maps, ghosts, and paperwork:

• an audio walk that triggers in specific streets and corners of Berlin
• a podcast that moves between archive, anecdote, and a larger contextual framework to the walk.
• a micro-museum in waiting, assembling works, documents, and ephemera linked to our locality, its legends, and its neighbors.

Some of what you will hear is meticulously researched.

Some of it is gossip in passing.

Psychogeographic investigation.

Public field notes from active routes, plus dates when Berlin Footnote leaves the headphones and enters the street.

Berlin Footnote is conceived and assembled by Agnes von Witzleben
