For 40 years, the Stasi ensured the rule of the ruling party, the SED. In its “fight against the enemy,” the Ministry for State Security continued to expand, in Lichtenberg and throughout the GDR. In 1990, courageous citizens not only saved the secret police’s records from destruction here, but also restored Mielke’s headquarters to a public space. Today, the site houses, among other things, the Stasi Records Archive within the Federal Archives, which provides information about the Stasi’s activities and its records.
“A Monument to Surveillance”: The Stasi Records Archive houses 111 kilometers of files, many of which contain personal data on individuals—collected by the Ministry for State Security. The exhibition “A Glimpse into the Secret” brings home the significance of this archive.
After the guided tour, you will have the opportunity to view our collection of sample files. It consists of reproductions of original Stasi documents. In addition to case files and personnel records of Stasi officers, the collection also includes files belonging to individuals who were affected. These individuals have consented to the publication of their documents, making a “glimpse into the secret” possible.
Register at or by phone at 030 18 665-6699
The meeting point for the guided tour is at the Stasi Records Archive, Building 7, on the grounds of the former Stasi headquarters.Translated with DeepL
