From today's federal states of Thuringia to Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , from Saxony to
Brandenburg via the capital city of Berlin, the former German Democratic Republic and its neighbouring West German states such as Lower Saxony and Bavaria are now one big open-air museum. Numerous memorials and sights bring the history of the former East German state to life. Historical elements such as border installations, memorials serving as warnings to future generations, divided villages and graffiti galleries as well as bunker experiences from the Cold War convey an insight, combined with an up-to-date revision of history, into the GDR era and the histories of its people's lives. This insight will stay with you. Feel the East German atmosphere up close by attending a lecture from contemporary witnesses at original locations.
