Berlin-Hohenschonhausen Memorial, Berlin

Undoubtedly, I recommend this place to everyone that goes to Berlin! It was the most interesting museum that we got the chance to visit! I was really overwhelmed by the guy that took us around, he definitely gave his best and more to explain and re-create the whole situation that people experienced there back then even the way that they were treated and talked to! I loved it!

Wonderful museum and guided tour. The tour is a must as the guides are former inmates and can explain exactly how the place operated. At face value the prison and interrogation centres look ordinary; yet the whole place uses careful and subtle psychological means of abusing inmates. Often its residents were there under little pretext, other than being politically undesirable. The place is vast and looks like a soviet style housing complex. Tremendous value at €6 and easy to access by tram.
