"One of the most fun and “hands-on” places to get to grips with the former GDR, this highly interactive museum, located right across from the Berlin Cathedral on the other side of the Spree, looks at several aspects of life in communist East Germany. As well as a retro 1970s apartment complete with funky wallpaper, vintage lamps, and state-run television channels (bugged, of course); a Trabant that you can sit in and “test drive” via a virtual windscreen; and a section on the prevalent FKK (public nudity) culture, the darker side of the regime is represented by a claustrophobic prison cell and information about sinister state control and Stasi surveillance." - MATADOR_NETWORK
