Visit the museum to understand the value of history through the objects on display. For the next generation to better understand history, understand the nature and life of people with war!

I was very impressed with the statue in front of the door!

Interesting museum which showcases the recent history of Leipzig from the communist times until German unification. Some thought provoking exhibits about freedom and choices. Entry is free.

Very interesting do dive into not so old history. The exposition is well prepared - one could spend hours to observe and enjoy (sometimes it's not possible to enjoy as one knows people were living those lifes) everything.

Wow. This is the museum to see in Leipzig. Fascinating. Free. Those who don't speak German will have a bit more trouble, but there are some English translations here and there. I spent 3 hours here and certainly skipped parts. Very well presented. Very fair. And did I mention free?!!!!

Extremely interesting look into the DDR history from 1945 onwards. This is a must-see for anyone in Leipzig as it is free to see the main exhibition
