The Evolution of Berlin’s Kinky Culture Your journey begins in a relaxed setting at a restaurant with an introduction to Berlin’s reputation as the world’s kink capital.

Learn how underground fetish, BDSM, and sex-positive communities emerged in West Berlin, and how these scenes developed their own codes, spaces, and networks. We then look at how this culture expanded rapidly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, shaping the openly kinky, boundary-pushing nightlife Berlin is known for today. This first stop provides the historical and cultural foundation for understanding Berlin’s contemporary fetish and sex-positive scene.
