Stasi Museum, Normannenstraße, Bezirk Lichtenberg, Deutschland
The Stasi Museum is located in Building 1 on the former site of the headquarters of the Ministry for State Security (MfS) of the GDR. This building was erected between 1960 and 1961 as the official residence of Erich Mielke, who held the office of Minister for State Security from 1957 until the fall of the GDR. On 15 January 1990, the Stasi headquarters were occupied by demonstrators. One week later, the Central Round Table, consisting of representatives of the SED dictatorship and civil rights groups, decided that a "Memorial and Research Centre on GDR Stalinism" should be set up in Building 1. As this declaration of intent was not pursued any further, members of the Berlin Citizens' Committee and other civil rights activists took the initiative and began to secure this historic site. In August, they founded the Antistalinist Action (ASTAK) e.V., which opened the "Normannenstraße Research and Memorial Site" on 7 November 1990 with the exhibition "Against the Sleep of Reason". Since then, Building 1 has been open to the public as a museum, which was later given the name Stasi Museum. The centrepiece of this historical site is Erich Mielke's office floor, which has been preserved in its original state. Since 1990, the ASTAK has been informing visitors about state security and its impact on the population of the GDR through various exhibitions. Since January 2015, Building 1 has been home to the permanent exhibition "State Security in the SED Dictatorship", which was created in collaboration with the Stasi Records Office.
