Rostock

The tour starts with a ride on the East German era suburb train and tram into the town centre of Rostock. There we will exit at Kroepeliner Tor, which is at the Western End of Lange Strasse. There, we will get a great view. We will then exit Lange Strasse and see some more recent East German housing blocks. We will see the artwork "Kaspar Ohm" by Jo Jastram from the 1980s and walk past more housing and public art from the 1980s, in order to then return to Lange Strasse. There we will see the Stalinist buildings in detail, as well as the fountain "people by the water" by Jo Jastram from 1968. We will walk across Lange Strasse and see the fountain "Joy of Life" and the three famous wall reliefs on the town's history. We will then break for coffee, before heading to the Stasi Memorial in the old Stasi prison.

Stasi Pre-Trial Prison

This is not a museum, but a memorial. The atmosphere here is haunting and there is a lot of information to take in. On the standard tour, we will only stay for half an hour before lunch. We can discuss your wishes and requirements before the tour. https://www.lpb-mv.de/projekte/dug-rostock/
