Dear visitors,
On the evening of January 10, 2026, we will close our contemporary history exhibition BlackBox Cold War.
What was planned in 2012 as a temporary exhibition for a maximum of three years has attracted numerous visitors from Germany and abroad for another ten years to the historic site of the former GDR border crossing point Friedrichstraße at Checkpoint Charlie, informing them about the division of Berlin, Germany, and the world.
We would like to thank all our employees and partners for their wonderful cooperation over many years.
As a source of inspiration, we are happy to pass on the baton—in the hope that this historic location will continue to provide information on the topic of the Cold War, which has become relevant again, in the future.
