An interactive museum situated along the Spree river opposite the Berlin Cathedral, exploring everyday life in socialist East Germany. Built on a hands-on philosophy, visitors are encouraged to open cupboards, rifle through drawers, and touch exhibits. You can test-drive a vintage Trabant car through a virtual East Berlin, explore a fully furnished 1970s prefabricated concrete apartment, and step inside an authentic Stasi interrogation room.
Highlights
- Interactive driving simulation inside an authentic Trabant car
- Faithfully reconstructed 1970s GDR prefabricated apartment
- Hands-on philosophy encouraging guests to touch all exhibits
- Eye-opening displays on Stasi surveillance and secret wiretaps
