Prenzlauer Berg Before, During, and After the Fall of the Berlin Wall

Prenzlauer Berg before, during, and after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Spread across approximately 100 square meters, continuities and breaks in East Germany are illustrated through a comparison of the periods before and after reunification, using specific examples from seven locations in Prenzlauer Berg:


Opposition under socialism (Gethsemane Church), making use of open space (Rykestraße and Kollwitzplatz), the economy and everyday life (the VEB Treffmodelle at Greifswalder Straße 212), power and powerlessness (the City District Council and the Prenzlauer Berg District Office on Fröbelstraße), The Buildings, the People, and Change (Helmholtzplatz), and Socialist Urban Planning (Ernst-Thälmann-Park).
