"Went for the mayday party, such a great venue. Had loads of fun. Its easy to get there with public transport and very well organized. Would definitely go again."
"Would have been 5 star if the museum would have the information in the rooms also translated into English. From 1933 this prison was used by the Gestapo to torture prisoners and to get confessions from political opponents. The reputation of this torture prison (Steinwache) spread and it became known..." as the hell of the western part of Germany. From 1933 till 1945 there were 66.000 prisoners out of which 30,000 were political prisoners. This museum is a reminder how the Nazis terrorized their own people and that any dissent was crushed. I only saw two weapons that were used to torture people and I don't want to imagine what kind of sadistic people worked there. Very very sad how this terrorist regime could last for so long in Germany and interestingly enough, the support of the German industry is shown (in the museum) to be a key factor of getting the Nazis to power with large donations.
