Guided Story
Imagine cruising through East Berlin in the 1980s, feeling the wind on your face as you ride one of the 130 motorcycles displayed here. These aren't just bikes; they're emblems of personal freedom in a world of constraints. Look to your left, where you'll find interactive exhibits that recreate an authentic East German apartment. Touch the wallpaper, listen to the sounds – it's like stepping back in time. Just behind you, across the river, you can glimpse the impressive Berlin Cathedral. It stands in stark contrast to the stories within these walls. Visiting here is like taking a step back in time, giving you a real sense of what life was like behind the Wall.
