The DDR Museum (Deutsche Demokratische Republik) is an interactive museum in the centre of Berlin.

Small and delightfully interactive, this is where you can turn the ignition key of an authentic Trabant car or learn how to dance the Lipsi, the GDR’s answer to rock ‘n’ roll. A must for Good Bye Lenin! fans. Lest you get the impression that life in the GDR was cute and wholesome, though, you might want to follow up a visit here with a trip out to the Gedenkstätte Hohenschönhausen (Stasi Prison).
