A hans-on experience of history in Berlin's most interactive museum
The DDR Museum is one of the most interactive museums in the world. Opened in 2006, it advanced to become one of Berlin’s most-visited museums within a year. Nominated for the
prize »European Museum of the Year« in 2008 for its high level of interactivity, the DDR Museum has received many international plaudits for its visitor-orientation.
History told in a lively, interactive and hands-on fashion. The DDR Museum in Berlin tells the story of every-day life in a long-past state, looking “behind the wall” to understand just what it was like to live under Real Existing Socialism. Visitors are invited to make new discoveries about this now defunct state. Covering a number of topics in a playful fashion, the visitor is encouraged to reconsider established clichés. Since its extension in October 2010, the DDR Museum now provides almost double the experience, enabling the visitor to see, experience and feel the every-day reality behind the façade of the Socialist dictatorship, and find out just what the government tried to keep secret.
