Begin your visit with a glimpse through the Berlin Wall, where you will learn about the contrasting worlds of the respective sides. Learn more about how was everyday life like in the West and how did people live in the East. Continue to the next room which focuses on personal life stories, then choose with whom you would like to embark on the VR experience – the rebellious craftsman, the reflective architect or the maladjusted border crosser. See oversized passports that illustrate how many different lives were in divided Berlin. Everyone dealt with the separation and the political oppression in an individual way.
Finally, take a seat in a virtual 80s style bus and set off on a city tour, encounter the border control at Checkpoint Charlie, drive along Friedrichstrasse and see the Palace of the Republic shining in its former glory. At the end of the tour, original images of the fall of the Berlin Wall remind you why this event still has such a deep impact on Germany today.
