Dialogue tour with historian Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk and museum director Dr. Urte Evert

Anniversary program "10 years unveiled. Berlin and its monuments"

In the last room of the "Unveiled" museum are six monuments from East Berlin that were dismantled after reunification and initially disappeared into warehouses or even into the ground. All of the West Berlin monuments that were erected before the end of the Cold War are still in their original locations in the city.

In a dialogical tour with the expert on GDR history and German-German culture of remembrance Ilko-Sascha Kowalczuk, the individual monuments are presented and their effect on collective memory is discussed.

Visitors' opinions are also sought when it comes to controversial topics: How democratic was the dismantling of East Berlin monuments in 1990/91? Are there any West Berlin monuments that at least need to be critically assessed? What effects do the wounds of division, but especially of reunification, have on today's society?Translated with DeepL
