There is not a single person who never heard about the difficulties that people lived through during the second World War and after it. The exhibition “Dictatorship and Everyday Life In The GDR” is a closer look on this problem, as it surveys the everyday life in the former East Germany, the dictatorship, imposed ideology and how it really influenced people’s living. There are two sections that visitors can browse through: “work” in the lower floor, and "private life" upstairs. Both of them cover such topics as SED (Socialist Unity Party of Germany), education, state security, women and their professional lives, youth and the elderly. Having browsed through the materials of the exhibition, you will find out how the attempt to dictate the lives of German citizens finally failed. Available till July 29^th. Opening hours are: 10am-6pm.
