Great place to see parts of the Berlin Wall and to understand the tragic situation in Berlin. If you are there, visit the museum and walk up on the tower. This place is good for information but if you want to have "a feeling" about the Berlin history and the crime regime, add "Gedenkstätte Hohenschönhausen" to your list.

Good museum about the history of the German Wall and maybe the most favorite recommendation in the travel guides. But a bit too expensive, we would recommend to got to Gedenkstätte Berliner Mauer (Bernauer Str.) + Gedenkstätte Hohenschönhausen.

(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!) For us this is the best place to get to know more about the crime regime of the DDR / GDR. Daily tours in english at 10.30 am, 12.30 am and 2.30 pm, mostly done by former prisoners. When you plan to know about the history of the Berlin Wall and Berlin, combine Hohenschönhausen with a visit at the Mauergedenkstätte Bernauer Str. - this is much better than the Checkpoint Charlie Museum.
