Muzeum Stasi w Berlinie

The Stasi Museum in Berlin is a fascinating journey into the dark times of the East German security service.

Visitors can see the office of Erich Mielke, East German security minister, preserved in its original state, and learn about the surveillance methods used by the Stasi.

The exhibition features authentic spy equipment, hidden cameras and personal testimonies of those subjected to surveillance. It is a place that movingly documents the system of citizen control during the communist era.
