The Museum in the Photo: Museum in the "Round corner"

Leipzig is the city of the peaceful revolution that took place in 1989. About this time show many memorable places, one of them is the Museum in the "Round corner".

In the year of revolution every Monday evening, holding candles, residents gathered near a 5-storey corner house built on the street Titrating in the beginning of XX century. Thus people tried to Express my immense dissatisfaction with the existing socialist regime in the GDR. In order to gather in this place, needed a lot of courage, because in that building housed the Ministry of state security (MGB). Currently there is a Museum in the "Round corner", the second the name of the Stasi Museum. Its name he received due to the form of the front porch, overlooking the junction of two streets.

The Museum occupies 5 floors in all the rooms it was decided not to make any changes. Stepping inside, the smell of old paper and linoleum. For visitors there is a permanent exhibition "Stasi – power and banality", it occupies 12 rooms and is dedicated to the history of the MGB and their actions during the existence of the GDR.

Among 40 thousand exhibits one can find various devices for listening, film records, supplies and equipment used for masking, as well as cameras to conduct covert surveillance, uniforms and more. All objects are supplemented with numerous original documents and photographs taken in Leipzig.

The Museum in the "Round corner" is a landmark, located directly in the former premises, where he worked for the Ministry of state security and where there have been no changes. This particular way allows you to convey the depressing atmosphere of surveillance and mistrust emanating from the MGB.
