Your benefits are described under “Good to know/Further price information”.


The memorial was formerly the headquarters of the State Security Service (Stasi). Visitors to the museum experience the working atmosphere in the district administration at that time.

In the original rooms of the former district administration for state security in Leipzig, the memorial provides information about the Stasi as a guarantor of the SED dictatorship and about its overcoming through the Peaceful Revolution. The exhibition "Stasi - Power and Banality" shows numerous, partly unique exhibits on the history, structure and working methods of the GDR secret service, including a prison cell. The exhibition "Leipzig on the way to the Peaceful Revolution" reports on the events in autumn 89 that brought down the communist dictatorship in the GDR. Since 2012, the memorial has been part of the European cultural heritage "Iron Curtain".
