The permanent exhibition in the Tränenpalast, the former departure hall at the Friedrichstraße border crossing, uses biographical examples and original objects to show how the division of Germany affected people's lives. With our guide, you will discover the most important topics and historical traces: How did people from the GDR manage to escape or leave for the West? What experiences did travelers from East and West have at the Palace of Tears? What memories do you yourself associate with this historic place?
You can register before the start of the tour at the information desk in the exhibition.
