About this event
For the night of Leipzig's Lichtfest the former district headquarters of the Stasi opens its doors. Some of the rooms survive in close to original condition, and the archive's holdings are the files the demonstrators of 1989 were marching against. Four hours to walk through the building that the city's own history turned inside out.
Why we picked it
The strongest thing on offer in Leipzig on 9 October: the actual building at the centre of the peaceful revolution, open late and free.
Free entry
Free entry — the page states "Der Eintritt ist frei." for this open-door night, and the archive is free of charge generally.
