Weekend tour of the Stasi Records Archive at the historic site
For 40 years, the Stasi secured the rule of the ruling SED (Social Democratic Union). In its "fight against the enemy," the Ministry for State Security expanded ever further – in Lichtenberg and throughout the GDR. In 1990, courageous citizens not only secured the secret police's records from destruction, they also restored Mielke's headquarters to public space.
