Here, you are at—or inside—the Museum in the Kulturbrauerei: a living witness to everyday life in the GDR.
The permanent exhibition reveals how people strove to lead normal lives, even as the regime shaped their daily existence through ideology, surveillance, and promises.
Across four distinct sections, you will learn about the rule of the SED party, life within the collective, the stark contrast between the socialist dream and reality, and how many East Germans carved out their own small pockets of private freedom—often centered around a Trabi and a Datsche.
Whether encountering a newspaper kiosk, a Konsum store, or archival film footage, you will sense the palpable atmosphere of a bygone era at every turn.
Admission and audio guides are free of charge; feel free to use the web app, which features 20 audio stations, or join one of our guided tours.
