Interrogation room, former East German political prison of Hohenschoenhausen, Berlin
The prison run by the East German Ministry for State Security was closed in 1990 following German unification. Critics of the East German regime and people caught trying to escape to the west were interrogated and imprisoned here. The complex was listed as a historical monument in 1992 and now serves as a memorial to explore the history of the prison. Most of the guided tours are conducted by former inmates.
