Description

Remembring the events around the Berlin Wall

From the escape instruments used by East Germans to photos and documents related to the construction of the wall, the Museum Haus am Checkpoint Charlie takes a deep look at the theories and implications of the wall that once divided the city of Berlin.

Chairlifts, fake passports, and other mechanisms used to avert the physical boundaries of the Berlin Wall are featured at this evocative museum. Located at the famous Checkpoint Charlie, the Museum Haus am Checkpoint Charlie is also steps away from a memorial for those killed during escape attempts.
