Welcome to Global Erinnern (Global Memory), a project by glokal e.V., Initiative of Black People in Germany ISD-Bund e.V. and recherche international e.V.

On our digital city maps you can explore global-local histories of Berlin, Bremen, Frankfurt am Main, Kassel and Cologne.

In each city there are historical events, thematic tours and biographies of people related to global history: Strikes of migrant workers; sites of African organizing in Europe; people who were active in the international resistance against fascism. Some places were central to emigration from Europe, others play(ed) an important role in global economic relations then and now. Traces of German colonialism, National Socialism and right-wing extremist violence can also be explored on the maps.
